bolduc picked on monday. dr. oz didn t win with fetterman. it was a mixed bag for trump-backed candidates. that s going to be part of the postmortem. we shouldn t under estimate what republicans accomplished. it looks like they are going to take back the howmps. house ofrepresentatives. that s going to be a huge check on the biden agenda. no big or small the majority is. if they control the house and subpoena power they can do investigations and make sure that the biden agenda doesn t really go anywhere for the next two years. that s a very big deal. the republicans didn t have the night they were hoping for but they accomplished what they needed to do at a minimum which is to take back at least one houshouse of congress. we don t know about the senate yet. had for in terms of trump and his candidates, yes, it was a very mixed bag. brian: two big winners no doubt about it is kemp and desantis. yes. both of them have been in trump s crosshairs recently and they have very big night
i don t think donald trump is happily about that. particularly desantis. what he did was quite amazing in florida last night. brian: great speech. we will see what he does with those victories going forward. brian: very interesting what s happening to florida. one of the fascinating stories. successfully clues maybe republicans should go to school on that. sean duffy in wink. ron johnson went to bed listen i didn t win yet. that s gressing. i m up by one and likely win why people don t. how could mandela barnes be close? sunny side egg. he can be a downer. third term in wisconsin as a u.s. senator. this is a big night for wisconsin and for ron johnson. make no mistake of that. going back to this issue, i do think it was trump and abortion on the ballot. i think a lot of pro-lifers would say listen, i m so happy with the dobbs decision. if we don t have a great red wave midterm and abortion issue the dobbs decision. we will take that every day of the week. it s still a win for p
abortion and democracy were the two of the biggest issues with voters. when it comes to the state of pennsylvania, why did dr. oz lose? well, it looks like, according to the exit polls, it s because fetterman won. fetterman got 57% of the independents, fetterman got 67% of the hispanics, he got 57% of the women. and, remember, it was just last week we were talking about that wall street journal story that showed that there was a 27-point swing from suburban women from republican or from democrats to republicans. he, fetterman, won 57% of the women. and in the state of pennsylvania, most important issue, by far, was abortion, with 35% followed by inflation at 29% and crime was 11%. and that is what drove people to the polls. then when you look at the exit polling regarding herschel walker, in georgia, herschel
we re firing nancy pelosi this morning. kevin mccarthy is going to be the speaker. and the power of oversight. i thought we were going to have legislative problems if republicans take the house and the senate. how do you get a pathway moving forward to get legislation done. with only one chamber, they are going to focus on oversight. they would hold this administration accountable and that s a big win for republicans. voters wanted a check on biden s agenda. i think that is a big lesson of what came out of last night. i will also say that according to the exit polls, the g.o.p. continued to do well with minority voters. they increased their numbers among blacks, among hispanics and among asians. it wasn t the night they wanted to. and the working class. 4 # 47 independence did go to democrats who are interesting in new york. new york might deliver the house for the republicans? it could happen on rhode island. all four seats went republican. two blue now four red. so, while the g
presidency by 500 votes. steve: went to the 1340ur9. ainsley: exactly. it has changed dramatically in florida. brian: i would add this: the house may go to republicans, likely to go. because of new york. they flipped about five or six, it looks like, major seats including taking out the chairman of the democratic congressional committee. so new york is fed up they maybe had the benefit of having a legitimate contender as a governor. nothing against rob mass styrene no but he never got the support 3 to 1 got 47% of the vote that helped everyone down ticket. about a half hour ago. mayor of miami joined us helped fuel the republican of florida. here is what he said. look at the trend of what happened, 2016 donald trump lost
