What’s being called the most expensive election in U.S. history is heating up in Georgia.
Republican Karen Handel and 30-year-old Democrat Jon Ossoff have spent a record $40 million on campaign ads.
Recent polls show they are neck-and-neck in the race to fill Health Secretary Tom Price’s old house seat.
Ossoff may have raised more money than Handel, but she has the support of President Trump, as well as Price and Agriculture Secretary and former Georgia Governor Sonny Perdue.
Early voting is over, with election day on Tuesday.
