One-on-one with Jon Ossoff

Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff has emerged as the best funded Senate candidate in U.S. history. His challenge to unseat Republican incumbent Senator David Perdue, and Georgia's other contest between Democrat Raphael Warnock and Republican Senator Kelly Loeffler will decide which party controls the Senate chamber for the first two years of the Biden administration. Just two days out from Election Day, Ossoff joins CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss everything from the Trump administration's "outrageous incompetence" to his thoughts on expanding the Supreme Court.

Less than a week before Georgia's Senate runoff election

More than 2.5 million votes have already been cast in Georgia's Senate runoff election. The rest of the state's voters will head to the polls on January 5. Only one of the two Republican incumbents needs to win for the party to maintain its majority in the Senate. If both Democratic challengers win, there will be a 50-50 split in the chamber, with the deciding vote going to incoming Vice President Kamala Harris. J. Miles Coleman, an associate editor for Sabato's Crystal Ball at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, discusses the tactics being used by the candidates less than a week before election day.

Runoff exposes deep-seated issues in Georgia

Georgia's January 5 Senate runoff will decide which party controls the Senate for the first two years under the incoming Biden administration. As we get closer to the final day of voting, the election has exposed some deep-seated issues surrounding race and religion within Georgia's Christian population. Christian Science Monitor correspondent Patrik Jonsson joins CBSN to discuss the impact the race is having on religious observers across the state.
