民主党预计将在关键胜利后掌控美国参议院
福克斯新闻主播玛莎·麦卡勒姆在《FOX新闻26民主现场》节目中，就2026年中期选举关键胜利后民主党预计将掌控美国参议院一事进行报道。

共和党的噩梦场景在堪萨斯州选举夜成为现实，一名 insurgent（此处结合语境译为“初出茅庐”的）民主党新人近百年来首次击败共和党现任参议员。
据福克斯新闻决策部消息， mega-church（ mega-church即大型 megachurch）牧师亚当·汉密尔顿预计将击败堪萨斯州共和党籍第一任期参议员罗杰·马歇尔，这场对决是本届中期选举周期中意外地接近且激烈的竞选之一。
汉密尔顿在向日葵州（美国堪萨斯州的别名）的胜利标志着堪萨斯州人自1932年以来首次向参议院输送民主党议员。
马歇尔的竞选在选举后期陷入困境，给了汉密尔顿争取大量独立选民和农村选民的机会——这也对参议院共和党人构成沉重打击，后者正努力维持在上议院的微弱多数优势。

民主党战略家马利·史密斯告诉福克斯新闻数字版，亚当·汉密尔顿是在堪萨斯州参选的完美候选人。
“他成功团结了共和党人、独立人士和民主党人，制造了令人震惊的意外胜利。民主党主导的环境、深陷丑闻的现任议员，以及汉密尔顿这样的强势民主党人共同促成了这次意外胜利，”史密斯表示。
尽管几个月来，该竞选并未引起全国民主党或共和党的关注，但在选举最后几周，马歇尔承认自己正为政治生涯而战，因为共和党现任议员在全国范围内面临逆风。
“我认为，我不是政治专家，我是一名医生，但如果我们失去堪萨斯州，我看不出我们如何维持对参议院的控制权，”马歇尔在选举前接受福克斯新闻数字版采访时表示。
“这就是为什么投给亚当·汉密尔顿的一票，就是投给查克·舒默和民主党掌控参议院的一票，”他继续说道。“就是这么简单。”
民主党参议院候选人拒绝舒默，但得益于其盟友投入的数百万美元竞选资金

但汉密尔顿多次表示，如果当选，他不会支持参议院民主党领袖、纽约州参议员查克·舒默继续领导民主党，他在与马歇尔的最后一场辩论中提醒了这一点。
“我已经表示，如果民主党掌控参议院，我不会支持查克·舒默担任参议院多数党领袖，”汉密尔顿说道。
他们的对决演变成一场残酷的激烈较量，吸引了数百万美元的资源以及高调的支持者，比如唐纳德·特朗普总统，他在选举前数周和数天内两次前往该州造势。

这场竞选充斥着针对马歇尔的激烈头条新闻，涉及他过去的医疗业务，据报道曾起诉患者追讨未付账单，以及针对汉密尔顿的尖锐广告，指控他掩盖其教堂内的性侵丑闻。
堪萨斯州政治专家认为，这场竞选对汉密尔顿而言是成熟的获胜机会，因为他凭借担任堪萨斯州最大卫理公会教堂的首席牧师和创始人长达数十年，在该州拥有内置的人气，同时特朗普政策造成了政治逆风——马歇尔在竞选的大部分时间里仍与总统保持紧密结盟。

“我真的觉得这完全有可能，”堪萨斯大学政治学教授唐·海德-马克尔告诉福克斯新闻数字版。“而且如果他们这次竞选周期做不到，我看不出他们什么时候才能做到。”

Republicans suffer historic Senate upset as Dem flips deep-red state for first time in nearly a century
Adam Hamilton’s win against Sen Roger Marshall marks the first time Kansas has sent a Democrat to the Senate since 1932

Democrats projected to gain control of US Senate after key victories
Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum reports on Democrats being projected to take control of the U.S. Senate following key victories in the 2026 midterm elections on ‘FOX News Democracy 26.’
NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!
The GOP’s nightmare scenario became a reality in Kansas on Election Night, where an insurgent Democratic newcomer toppled a Republican incumbent for the first time in nearly a century.
Megachurch pastor Adam Hamilton is projected to defeat first-term Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., in one of the more unexpectedly close and brutal races during this midterm election cycle, according to Fox News Decision Desk.
Hamilton’s win in the Sunflower State marks the first time Kansans have sent a Democrat to the Senate since 1932.
Marshall’s campaign sputtered in the late stages of the race, giving Hamilton an opening to peel off a large number of independent and rural voters — and it also served a bruising blow to Senate Republicans who are trying to cling to their slim majority in the upper chamber.

Democratic strategist Mally Smith told Fox News Digital that Adam Hamilton was the perfect candidate to run in Kansas.
“He was able to bring Republicans, Independents and Democrats together to pull a stunning upset. The combination of a blue environment, a scandal-plagued incumbent, and a strong Democrat like Hamilton made this upset possible,” said Smith.
Though for months their race was not on the radar of national Democrats or Republicans, in the waning weeks Marshall acknowledged that he was running for his political life as headwinds battered Republican incumbents across the country.
“I think that, you know, I’m not a political expert, I’m a physician, but if we lose Kansas, I don’t see how we keep control of the Senate,” Marshall told Fox News Digital in an interview before the election.
“And that’s why a vote for Adam Hamilton is a vote for Chuck Schumer and Democrat control of the Senate,” he continued. “It’s that simple.”

But Hamilton has time and again said that he would not support Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., to continue leading Democrats if elected, a point he reminded Marshall of during their final debate.
“I’ve already said I wouldn’t support Chuck Schumer for Senate majority leader if the Democrats took control of the Senate,” Hamilton said.
Their contest morphed into a bitter, bloody battle that dragged in millions of dollars in resources and high-profile surrogates, like President Donald Trump, who rallied twice there weeks and days before the election.

It became dominated by brutal headlines against Marshall for his old medical practice, reportedly suing patients for unpaid bills, and searing ads against Hamilton that alleged he covered up sexual assault scandals at his church.
Kansas political experts argued that the race was ripe for Hamilton to take, given that he had a built-in popularity within the state fostered by his decades as the head pastor and founder of the largest United Methodist church in Kansas and the political headwinds created by Trump’s policies — Marshall for much of the campaign remained closely aligned with the president.

“I really just think it’s entirely possible,” University of Kansas political science professor Don Haider-Markel told Fox News Digital. “And if they can’t do it this election cycle, I don’t see when they’re ever going to do it.”
