  "account": "US Democrat Jon Ossoff is gaining popularity as he campaigns for his Senate seat in Georgia. He is known for his charisma and eloquence, drawing large crowds and enthusiastic applause. Ossoff is considered a moderate and a rising star in his party, with some speculating he could be a presidential candidate in 2028, although he denies having such ambitions. He is currently defending his Senate seat in a crucial midterm election that could impact the Democrats' chances of gaining a majority in the US Senate. The election is significant in Georgia, a state Donald Trump narrowly won in 2024.",
  "summary": "Donald Trump is as unpopular as hardly any president before him - and yet a Democratic victory is far from certain. This is primarily due to the party itself.",
