our elections. there s no reason why on a monday, there should be hundreds of thousands of ballots that are still being counted in the stated of arizona. steve: they have got to change the state law. pete: they need to listen to joe biden who said the pandemic is over. so the emergency voting measures that were put into place in 2020 are no longer relevant in 2022. we can t sleep walk into a 2024 where the new normal is mailout ballots, no chain of custody, no confidence in the outcome. there is a silver lining here though. kari lake is going to beat katie hobbs in arizona when all the votes are counted. steve: she is currently behind. ainsley: maybe. pete: all the dumps coming out are same day ballots not counseled. huge same day surge for her. she likely wins. if you care about election integrity. i go at that. if you care about the border, she is going to go at that declaring an invasion on day one. so there are still some good signs to include the house where
right? if. ainsley: subpoena power and the power of the purse. steve: there it is right now. majority to get 218. they got 212. even the nonpolitical analysts saying it looks as if the balance of power in the house will swing to the republicans. buff then when you look at the senate, right now the democrats are 50. now, if the republicans are able to pick up georgia. then it would be a 50/50 split. and this is important because currently they have got a power sharing agreement if it s 50/50, of course kamala harris breaks the tie. but 50/50 then they have to share the duties in the senate. pete: they do but the democrats still hold the gavel in that power-sharing agreement. which is what makes the house so important even the slimmest of majorities at this point. and for it to be what are we now almost a full week out from election day and we are still counting still almost a dozen races in the house of representatives? it s precarious.
the democrats made no progress in the senate. they have desperately in needed to make progress in the election cycle. at best one seat celebrating they only lost the house by view vote. the g.o.p. is block these radical kook perhaps that biden is pushing. conduct investigations and da what they need to do and they damn well better is this good snuff though it s not good enough. if the republicans allow the same d.c. establishment many of whom you see on tv all the time telling you how smart they are and they know everything, if they allow them to control the agenda and the money the future is bleak. steve: and when he is talking about investigations and things like that, we were talking about how in the senate, if it s 50/50 as it is oright now, there is a power-sharing agreement. but if the democrats pick up georgia, then they would be able to issue subpoenas without the approval of the republicans.
ainsley: this is a fox news alert. right now president biden is meeting with china s president xi jinping ahead of the g-20 summit in indonesia. this is the first meeting between the two leaders since biden took offers. steve: geertsy is live i think 12 hours ahead of us in bali, indonesia with the very latest, good evening, peter. 13 hours ahead now as we wait for the president long understanding personal relationship with xi jinping so far today it is all business as
1300 people have died from the flu and hospitalizations are doubling every couple of weeks doctor siegel, let s not be ambiguous with the people r5067ing right now. they should get the flu shot, right? no question about it. pregnant woman by the way flu shots are down in pregnant woman. you are doing a two for. protecting yourself and protecting your unborn child. nothing worse when you are pregnant than the flu. the flu effects you badly. but the flu shot is completely safe. steve: and finally, cefd is still out there too. we just saw joe biden and his team meeting in indonesia. people wearing covid masks. people should get the omicron booster, right? many chron booster covers of the new subvariants but also gives you protection for all the subvariants and a couple more coming out. and seeing cases on the increase again.
