Republican Georgia Senate candidate Rep. Mike Collins has accused Democratic incumbent Sen. Jon Ossoff of making a "sexist" and "misogynist" remark about a female cancer survivor working as a White House aide. The comment, made as part of a viral jab at former President Trump, has drawn sharp criticism from Collins as the two face off in Georgia's closely watched Senate race.

Ossoff, a 39-year-old freshman senator seeking re-election, made the remark while criticising a Trump-linked White House aide, prompting Collins to go on the offensive and label the comment demeaning towards women. The available article text does not detail the specific wording of Ossoff's remark or the aide's identity, but frames the exchange as part of an escalating war of words between the two candidates ahead of the midterm elections.
