Trump and Obama Campaign in Ohio and Georgia in Final Week Before Midterms

President Donald Trump, a Republican, and former Democratic President Barack Obama campaigned on Wednesday in the closing week before the November 3 midterm election, with stops in Ohio and Georgia, where Reuters said critical contests are being decided. Obama was scheduled to appear Wednesday evening in Morrow, Georgia, south of Atlanta, alongside Sen. Jon Ossoff and former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms. Ahead of that rally, the Georgia Republican Party launched a website highlighting what it describes as Ossoff's failures and his ties to the DSA. Separately, accusations intensified in Alaska after a New York Times report on Wednesday alleged that members of Mary Peltola's team were involved in a push to find a spoiler.

The Washington Post, on the left, leads with a roundup headline that puts Trump's and Obama's swing-state travel alongside the Alaska accusations, and it highlights the Times allegation about Peltola's team. Its excerpt gives no Georgia detail. The Daily Signal, on the right, focuses on a single race. It leads with the Georgia GOP website, portrays Ossoff as popular among socialists while masking his record, and uses Obama's rally as the hook. It leaves out Trump and Alaska. Both note Obama's Wednesday campaigning. They differ in focus: the Post treats the day as a multi-state roundup with an allegation about one campaign team, while the Signal presents a party attack on a Democratic senator. Reuters gives a neutral overview of both presidents' trips.
