Ossoff, Handel set for first debate in tight Georgia congressional race
by David M. Drucker | Jun 6, 2017, 6:21 PM


ATLANTA — Republican Karen Handel and Democrat Jon Ossoff were set to debate Tuesday evening as the record-setting dog fight for a vacant Georgia congressional seat enters its final two weeks.

Handel was locked in a too close for comfort race with Ossoff, in suburban Atlanta's conservative-leaning sixth congressional district.

Republicans would like Handel to use the first of her debates with Ossoff to prove him ill prepared for national office by highlighting his questionable national security credentials. Democrats counter that Ossoff can win the evening by exposing Handel as a vapid candidate whose whole strategy is to stay out of sight until Election Day.

Public and private polling shows a very close contest, with Ossoff leading in some surveys, despite the seat's history of voting for Republicans, consistently, since 1978. Ossoff led Handel by 2 percentage points in the latest polling averages.
