What is going on in Virginia?
A hotly contested US congressional race has turned Sasquatch ugly after one candidate accused the other of being “a devotee of Bigfoot erotica”.
The row began after the Democratic candidate in Virginia tweeted an image of the beast taken from the Instagram account of her Republican rival.
“This is not what we need on Capitol Hill,” Democrat Leslie Cockburn wrote with the drawing of a naked Sasquatch.

Republican Denver Riggleman denies he was writing a book about Bigfoot sex.
The image taken from Mr Riggleman’s Instagram account is a black-and-white drawing of Bigfoot, with a black “censored” bar to hide his penis.
“These images are very disturbing, I think everyone should just look at them to see who this candidate is,” Ms Cockburn said in an interview.
