New York (CNN) — As polls opened for a highly anticipated congressional runoff election in Georgia Tuesday, Democratic candidate Jon Ossoff demurred when asked by CNN's Alisyn Camerota about the race's national implications.
"The contrast in this district is between a career politician -- my opponent, Karen Handel, who is notorious for cutting off funding for life-saving breast cancer screenings at Planned Parenthood -- or a fresh voice who wants to work across the aisle to get things done, grow our local economy, (and) work to make health care more accessible and affordable for women and folks with pre-existing conditions," he said on "New Day."
"Out-of-state money has poured in on both sides. It's become a little bit of an arms race," the Democrat admitted. "I'm proud of the fact that my campaign is powered by small-dollar grassroots fundraising of an average contribution of less than $50 while my opponent's campaign has been bailed out by the same old special-interest super PACs peddling deception, fear-mongering and hate here in Georgia for months now."
"You want to see this race as about you against Karen Handel," Camerota pushed. "Understood. You've worked hard. But do you not see the national implications of this race, do you not think it's at all a referendum on Donald Trump?"

Amazing, indeed.
He reminds me of someone called a weiner.
This can only mean he’s going down and he knows it.
Just an amazing likeness.
Masculinity????? My Gaydar is pegged...and smoking.
Honestly if you read the article he doesn’t seem lacking in confidence he’s going to win. I think he’s decided in that district which is traditionally Republican it’s not wise to attack Trump at least during the campaign. If he wins tonight, trust me he’ll be talking up his win as a referendum on the president.
Yes, it will be the next election will show the voters hate Trump
Gee, how JFK!
Yes, and refused to call it for Trump, even though Trump won it by 10pts!
Yes, they will spin it as being a disaster for Trump because it is a GOP district and it was competitive.
If.....he wins
Who could have predicted...?
