Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy

November 4th, 2020

What a disastrous night though McCarthy, the Republicans had just lost the presidency to Joe Biden and Stacey Abrams and to make matters worse, the Republicans were just six seats away from the majority that McCarthy thought was his just a week earlier. McCarthy looked at the screen again and even Fox News was dancing on the grave of President Trump. Fox News then flashed a graphic of the women in congress making McCarthy's night even worse. The Republicans had just 20 women in the Congress and that was only ten percent of their caucus. Meanwhile, The Democrats had 78 women representing their party in Congress. McCarthy was a little happy that the Democratic number of women went down but McCarthy knew 2022 would have to be Republican's year of the women or the party would be forever behind. Fox News showed the results of the 2020 house election last night one last time on the screen before discussing Senate races.

Democrats: 223-Republicans: 212

The Senate races gave a little hope to Republicans, Mitch McConnell was able to have a stronger majority with 54 seats and even had an upset in Michigan where John James was able to knock out Gary Peters even as Joe Biden won Michigan by five percent. The Graphic reminder McCarthy he needed to meet with McConnell and told his assistant to schedule a meeting to discuss election results.

Republicans: 54-Democrats: 46

America's Election Headquarters 2020

Bret Baier: Welcome to America's Election Headquarters, We have a minute till the first polls close in Kentucky and Indiana where we will see if this is a wave for Republicans or Democrats or if this is a calm year. My cost host is Martha MacCallum and we will be here all night updating you on the results of the night. So Martha, what do you think we will see tonight?

Martha MacCallum: I think we are going to see a 2010 midterm again, the last two years the conservatives have been gaining momentum. Truly, the Republican party is angry and they have shown it with huge fundraising hauls from campaigns and even congressional campaigns bringing thousands of people to watch them speak. This was all fueled by the Democrats and President Biden's attempts to bring Medicare for all to the floor of Congress which Mitch McConnel has been fighting every step of the way.

Bret Baier: Sorry to stop you but we have the first results from the 2022 midterm elections. With our new exit polls from congressional races, we can already call that nine Republicans incumbents will be headed back to Congress with one Democratic incumbent. So far, no changes or switches but these all have been reliably red or blue seats. What we really will be looking at is Virginia and Georgia where Democrats made pickups two and four years ago. Martha, where will we see a red wave tonight early on and what do you think the effects on 2024 will be from these elections.

Republicans: 9 (+0, -0)-Democrats: 1 (+0, -0)

Tossups: 0 (0 R, 0 D)

Martha MacCallum: I think we can already assume that Republicans will be doing well tonight if you need proof look at Andy Barrs district. Barr has had two competitive elections in a row and tonight we don't even need to wait to call the district. If we need more proof early on then, I agree, we should be looking at specifically Virginia where three seats could be flipped to the Republican column. If Republicans even win one or two of those then I think they will have a good night, if they win three then Democrats should be prepared for the minority. For 2024, this election will be closely watched by all the presidential contenders especially those who are running this year and preparing a run in 2024. With Biden doing a one-term pledge, you have seen a lot of Democrats visiting the early states along with Republicans. Those candidates will have to see if they're hard worked paid off tonight and some candidates, like already said need to see if they win a seat tonight like Seth Moulton winning the Massachusetts Governor seat.

Bret Baier: We have the first real results coming out of this midterm election. We already can make our first calls tonight in Senate races, Rand Paul has been reelected to a third term easily trumping his competitor. Todd Young has easily beaten back his challenge and it looks like Tim Scott will be reelected in South Carolina. That means Republicans have kept three of their Senate seats while Democrats have kept one in Vermont where Patrick Leahy has easily won his election. The only too early to call race is in Georgia but that is too early, not to close. We still can say, Tom Graves, the Republican, is ahead in his race.

Republican: 35 (+0, -0)-Democrats: 35 (+0, -0)

Tossup: 1 (1 R, 0 D)

Martha, can you start to call the congressional and Gubertarional races.

Martha MacCallum: This is an important time right now for Republicans watching congressional races. Right now, it does look like Republican have at least started to scare some of these incumbents, ten seats are too close to call of Democrats while Republicans have been able to hold all their seats so far except two too close to call races in Florida. With the congressional races, the Republican is leading thirty-nine to twenty-two.

https://www.270towin.com/2020-house-election/DprkX6V

Republican: 39 (+0, -0)-Democrats: 22 (+0, -0)

Tossups: 12 (2 R, 10 D)

In the Governor Elections, we can call one races. South Carolina, Henry McMasters has been reelected. In Georgia, the race is too close to call and in Vermont, Phil Scott is in a race that is too close to call. That's the most interesting development right now, Scott has won pretty comfortably the last three elections but it looks like the reemergence of energy from conservative might have hurt the moderate Republican Governor. Scott has been talked about as a presidential contender and has visited New Hampshire to help Kelly Ayotte and Chris Sununu but that dream may die after a loss tonight. In Georgia, Brian Kemp was also mentioned as a possible contender but Kemp has already said he has no interest in the White House.

Republican: 9 (+0, -0)-Democrats: 5 (+0, -0)

Tossup: 2 (2 R, 0 D)

America's Election Headquarters 2022

Bret Baier: It is now 7:30 pm and three crucial states are closing their polls. With the new closing, we have new calls. In Ohio, the senate race is too close to call between Former Congressman Jim Renacci and Congressman Tim Ryan who made an unsuccessful play for the presidency two years ago. In the Ohio Governor's race, the election is also too close to call as Lt. Governor Jon Husted is in a close race with Mayor Nan Whaley. In North Carolina, the Senate is too close to call as Former Governor Pat McCrory is battling with former Congressman Dan McCready. McCready has been a fundraising powerhouse making the race very close in the final days. We do have one call right now in the Senate,,, Congressman Tom Graves has won the election has kept the seat in Republican hands. Martha, can you update us on the Governor races and congressional races.

Republican: 36 (+0, -0)-Democrats: 35 (+0, -0)

Tossups: 2 (2 R, 0 D)

Martha MacCallum: I have a lot of new calls to make and some interesting races to point out. First, the Republicans have now flipped two new seats. Lucy McBeth lost to Lynn Homrich who is a self-funded millionaire and joining the few women in the Repubican caucus. The second seat was lost by Joe Cunningham who had held the hard-Repubican seat for two terms till he lost. The Democrats do have one ray of hope, Jennifer Wexton has held her seat which was one of the three too close to call races in Virginia. The Republicans have held the two too close to call races in Florida allowing Representative Mast and Diaz-Balart to return to Congress for two more years. In the new races. Republicans have one too close to call race and Democrats to have one suprise too close to call race. In the seat that Tim Ryan is retiring from to run for Senate is in a too close to call races even though it should be a heavily Democratic seat.

https://www.270towin.com/2020-house-election/MK2yj3l

Republican: 67 (+2, -0)-Democrat: 29 (+0, -2)

Tossup: 9  (1 R, 8 D)

Now, to the Governor races. Brian Kemp in Georgia has won reelection pretty strong also in an increasingly purple state that was one percent away from voting for Joe Biden but looks like it will stay Republican for a few more years especially with the win in the Senate set and the first house pick up of the night. With the call now, the Republicans currently have ten seats and two of their seats are tossups but in both, Husted in Ohio and Scott in Vermont, the Republican is leading but it is still within two percent.

Republican: 10 (+0, -0)-Democrat: 6 (+0, -0)

Tossup: 2 (2 R, 0 D)

Right now, I can already say it looks like it will be the red wave...

Brit Hume: I may even say red tidal wave especially with these early flips in South Carolina and Georgia.

Karl Rove: I don't know if we can declare that yet but Republicans are definitely on a good track. I would be worried about some Liberal Governors like Phil Scott, it looks like the emergence of the tea-party conservatism has hurt the moderate Republican even if he has sky-high approval ratings. I think Scott will pull it off, Vermont just loves him too much but look to Maryland and Massachusetts to see pickups for Democrats in Governorship with an open seat currently held by Republicans.

Brit Hume: I still think may have a chance especially in Maryland where the Republican is only behind by about five points. Still, even without Maryland and Massachusetts, Republicans have a good path especially through Wisconsin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. They may even suprise us in Oregon but that is if a red tidal wave is really here.
