Overview
- Sen. Jon Ossoff held a large rally in Midtown Atlanta on Sunday that focused on cost‑of‑living relief and a cross‑party coalition message as the campaign moves into its final months.
- He repeatedly attacked President Trump and linked Republican nominee Rep. Mike Collins to the president’s agenda to nationalize the race and sharpen contrasts with his opponent.
- Polling and election forecasters have moved the contest toward Democrats and Ossoff enters the stretch with a sizable fundraising advantage over Collins.
- Collins is under a House ethics inquiry and has faced reporting about ties to a white‑nationalist online figure, charges Democrats are citing to press for accountability.
- Two statewide debates are scheduled, in‑person early voting in Georgia runs Oct. 13 through Oct. 30, and the outcome in Georgia could be decisive for control of the Senate given the state’s pivotal role in 2021.
