in the end. [inaudible]. sean, some people were rude when i pressed on those questions. that s understandable. they are backing terry mcauliffe here because this is a blue area. this is why biden showed up here. arlington is more blue than reds when you talk to people who support glenn youngkin, they will say you will never see a rally like this in loudoun county right now. sean: about how many people showed up tonight? well, estimating around 2000 people. that s give or take. it was extremely small compared to the rallies we saw with president trump and others and because this area is so blue. we expected a lot more people. that could have been due to the chilly weather. we don t know. biden did not draw in the crowds expected today andpe neither did terry mcauliffe.
down to a very late count in fairfax county which is the biggest county voting. they already announced they will vote very late. it will be interesting to see if that s like georgia or whether the youngkin lawyers are better able to stop any funny business. right now i would say youngkin is on offense and the governor is on defense. i think this is still a purple state. it was drifting blue, but this administration is going to turn most of america red. i think virginia is caught up in the same wave as most of the country outside of the heavily unionized states like california or new york. in new jersey republicans are within 4 points of the democratic governor and that s way traditional blue state. sean: as the swamp has grown so too has the democratic population.
working. it ain t working on the border with inflation or energy. they get a 54% increase with heating costs in maine they will be annihilated nextn year in maine. sean: i should not have asked the question because i lived it with you. before you became speaker i was the mc the night you became speaker of the house. republicans were out of power in the house of representatives for 40 long years. not only did you bring republicans back into power, but they have been in play ever since. things have changed. ii would hate to think of 40 years in darkness again. sometimes i can t foresee a time where new york or california ever goes red again. i can t see it.me oh, i can. look, things change
sean: donald trump got crowds of 40,000 people and 30,000 outside. yes. sean: it didn t seem like you got recognized. that s good probably if you are associated with this show in hostile territory. i was completely honest. sean: thank you. with more reaction author of a big book. this book will matter. we are going to have to rebuild this country beyond biden. rebuilding the america we love. available at amazon.com. former speaker of the house newt gingrich. i don t think the commonwealth of virginia is any longer a purple state. c it s a blue state. i am looking at polls. they are encouraging.
that here. great to see you. thanks, tucker. we will be back tomorrow. the sworn enemy of of lying pomposity, smugness and group think. and now ladies and gentlemen the great sean hannity takes over the 9 p.m. hour.ow sean: thanks and welcome to hannity. americans held hostage abandoned behind enemy lines. day 73. sean: we won t give up thinking about and praying for and reminding all of the country that it s now 73 days.da tonight the official number of americans still trapped in afghanistan continues to rise. first it was they told us under 100. then a couple of hundred. now getting closer to 1,000 tonight. in other words, the biden administration didn t know how many americans that joe bidenn left behind.st they don t know how many thousands of green card holders
