WTOC Interview: How John Ossoff would serve Georgia * (Source: WTOC) SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) -Georgia’s Senate Race between Republican Incumbent David Perdue and Democratic Challenger Jon Ossoff may be one of the most talked-about races on the ballot.

Trump and Biden focus on coronavirus in opening stages of dual town halls   (CNN) On a night of dueling town halls for President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden, the President once again gave confusing answers about whether he was tested for coronavirus on the day of the first debate and did not express any regret for the Rose Garden event that is now widely viewed as a "superspreader" event. Within the opening moments of a presidential town hall with NBC News, Trump  repeated the false statement that masks don't work 85%  of the time: "People with masks are catching it all the time," Trump said. Of whether he had a coronavirus test on the day of the first debate with his opponent Joe Biden, he told NBC's Savannah Guthrie: "Possibly I did, possibly I didn't."

Later, the president held his third campaign rally in three nights, this time in Iowa, a state he won handily in 2016 but where Biden is making a late push. Trump claimed to be leading in the mo...
