10/26: Pennsylvania Senate candidates face off in first and only debate. Brittney Griner faces Russian prison sentence after rejected appeal.

We begin in Pennsylvania with a Senate race that's got huge implications for the country, and which party has power in Washington. The first and only debate between Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz included fiery exchanges on abortion rights, the economy, and a range of other issues. In New York, the governor's race is surprisingly close. Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul and her challenger, Congressman Lee Zeldin, clashed at their only debate last night, including on the topics of abortion and crime. There's a new focus on efforts to bring WNBA Superstar Brittney Griner home, after she lost an appeal of her prison sentence in Russia. Police in St. Louis say the 19-year-old who murdered two people at his former high school was carrying more than 600 rounds of ammunition for his AR-15 style rifle. The Kremlin said this morning it will continue to claim that Ukraine may be planning to use a radioactive "dirty bomb" on the battlefield. There is still no evidence at all to back up that allegation. U.S. forces and their NATO allies are conducting their own military drills this week, not that far from Ukraine.
