WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican Senator Kelly Loeffler danced around questions about whether President Donald Trump lost the Nov. 3 election in a debate with her Democratic challenger on Sunday before two Georgia runoffs that will decide control of the U.S. Senate.

Facing off with the Rev. Raphael Warnock on a debate stage in Atlanta, Loeffler repeatedly called the political newcomer a "radical liberal," while Warnock criticized Loeffler's stock trades after the wealthy businesswoman was appointed senator a year ago. Each criticized the other's interpretation of the Christian faith.
