Mike Johnson calls Dems’ socialist insurgency an ‘effective’ midterms warning

Speaker Mike Johnson sat down with Fox News Digital on the sidelines of an event in New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District as he crosses the country to rally for Republicans to win the House.

A key New Jersey swing district is falling out of Republicans’ grasp on Tuesday night in a critical victory for House Democrats.

New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District, which is where President Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf course is located, is projected to be represented next year by former Navy helicopter pilot Rebecca Bennett after she is projected to defeat Rep. Tom Kean Jr., R-N.J.

Kean, the son of former Garden State Gov. Tom Kean Sr., was seeking a third term representing the affluent area encompassing suburbs and exurbs of New York City.

Multiple election forecasts, including Fox News Power Rankings, projected that he would lose to Bennett in what was expected to be an overall difficult year for Republicans trying to keep their congressional majorities.

Kean is known to keep a low profile on Capitol Hill. But he was thrust into the spotlight earlier this year over a four-month absence from Congress that he later revealed was due to his getting treatment for depression. He received some blowback, however, for not revealing the specifics of his issue until his return.

“When I first informed the public that I was dealing with a medical issue, I was still trying to understand what was happening myself. When I said I hoped to return in a matter of weeks, I believed it. Those were the best estimates the doctors could provide. But, as the over 48 million of my fellow Americans being treated for this illness have come to discover, there is no timeline for healing. There is no timeline for recovery. Only the work of getting better one day at a time,” Kean said on the House floor when he returned.

He defended Trump’s economic record and war in Iran during his and Bennett’s first and only debate, while she criticized the president’s tariffs and blamed the Middle East conflict for the high gas prices Americans are grappling with.

Kean told Fox News Digital of his own record in August, “I’ve been a really effective legislator who’s brought things back to the district, who’s listened to my constituents on their needs and their concerns, in contrast to my opponent, who has really been a very abject partisan.”

Republicans across the U.S. have been sandbagged by Trump’s low approval numbers, despite the president crisscrossing the country in the weeks before the election in a bid to turn out the base.

Several House Republicans told Fox News Digital as of early Tuesday night that they had given up hope of keeping the majority. “It’s a bloodbath,” one senior House GOP aide said.

And Kean’s district was one of the earliest ones where GOP groups waved the white flag. Fox News Digital was told by multiple sources last month that the House GOP leadeship-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund and Trump-aligned MAGA Inc. were pulling their investments out of the district to triage races in other parts of the country. A source close to Kean’s campaign brushed it off at the time, telling Fox News Digital they were set for cash.

Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., told attendees at a fundraiser for Kean that Fox News Digital attended in August, “We consider this a top three race, not just a top 10. That’s how important it is to us. It has a target on its back.”

【美国中期选举】两州首批投票站关闭

美国中期选举投票陆续结束，首批投票站已经关闭。

法新社报道，印第安纳州和肯塔基州部分地区，于新加坡时间星期三（11月4日）早上7时率先关闭投票站。

民主党有望夺取众议院控制权，甚至可能拿下参议院。这对总统特朗普和共和党在国会的掌控力构成巨大挑战，并可能削弱特朗普在剩余任期内的权力。

由于生活费飙升以及针对伊朗的战争，美国民众情绪已发生剧烈转变，转而反对共和党。

众议院民主党领袖杰弗里斯 (Hakeem Jeffries) 在华盛顿告诉记者，美国正处于方向发生重大转变的边缘，也处于“民主党夺回众议院控制权的边缘”。

本次选举角逐众议院全部435个席位、参议院100个席位中的35个，以及36个州州长职位。

民主党只须在众议院多赢得三个席位，并在参议院实现四个席位的净增长，即可从共和党手中夺取两院的控制权。

Voters in multiple states encountered paper ballot shortages on Election Day Tuesday, and some left polling places without casting ballots as election officials scrambled to address disruptions during the high-stakes 2026 midterms.

Ballot shortages were reported at polling locations in Illinois, Kansas and Maryland as voters headed to the polls Tuesday.

In Linwood, Kansas, where voters were casting ballots in a closely watched Senate race as Republicans fight to maintain control of the chamber, a ballot shortage forced some voters to leave their polling place without casting a ballot after election officials failed to provide enough ballots to meet demand.

One voter told the Kansas Reflector that her 18-year-old son left without voting after officials ran out of paper ballots. She said she saw another 10 to 15 people leave without casting ballots.

Leavenworth County said in a press release the ballot shortage occurred due to an error in the number of ballots ordered.

“The shortage was discovered early, and efforts to correct the mistake began immediately. We recognize the importance of ensuring that every eligible voter has the opportunity to cast a ballot. We sincerely apologize for this mistake and any inconvenience or concern it may have caused,” the press release said.

“The number of ballots needed was 1,000, the polling station received only 100. The situation has since been remedied since early this morning, and voters are able to vote,” the Kansas Secretary of State communications spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

In Chicago, voters encountered ballot shortages at several polling locations, prompting election officials to deliver additional ballots and direct voters to alternative voting centers, according to ABC7 Chicago.

https://news-multimedia-1393112320.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/clear.gif

“There are several precincts for which the board is printing and delivering extra paper ballots and possible extra touch-screen voting machines. As far as we know, no voters have been turned away or unable to vote,” the Chicago Board of Elections told the outlet.

“It’s not unusual for an election authority to have to supply additional ballots to a polling place if turnout is higher than anticipated,” Illinois State Board of Elections Public Information Officer Matt Dietrich told Fox News Digital.

“We’ve heard from voters that there are lines at some Chicago polling places but, again, that’s not out of the ordinary in a general election.”

In Brandywine, Maryland, voters faced long lines and delays Tuesday after Brandywine Elementary School, a polling location in Prince George’s County, ran out of paper ballots, according to local outlet WJLA.

The school did not have correct ballots, which were later corrected, Prince George’s County Board of Elections Administrator Wendy Honesty-Bey told local outlet The Banner.

“The State Board of Election’s (SBE) mission is to ensure voting occurs. We, of course, conduct lessons learned after every election and will do so after this election. Once made aware of this situation, more ballots and supplies were deployed to the polling place,” an SBE spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

While ballot shortages may be gripping some polling precincts, voting machines in Westchester County, New York, are rejecting paper ballots at polling locations throughout the county.

“A change affecting a contest in one municipality required updated election programming, which was subsequently tested and deployed for early voting and for Election Day machines in that municipality,” the county’s Board of Elections said in a statement.

“However, Election Day machines elsewhere in the county continued to use the original programming and therefore could not recognize and accept the ballots being used for Election Day.”

Jon Ossoff wins Georgia 2026 Senate election, keeping seat for Democrats

By Kaia Hubbard
Updated on: November 3, 2026 / 8:06 PM EST / CBS News

Washington — Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff defeated GOP Rep. Mike Collins in the Georgia Senate race, CBS News projects, holding onto his seat in the upper chamber.

Ossoff, 39, was the sole Democrat seeking reelection in a state that President Trump won in 2024. He first came to the Senate in 2021, when he delivered Democrats one of two runoff victories in Georgia. This cycle, Republicans saw the race as a key prize as they sought to keep control of the chamber. But after a messy primary fight, and facing personal controversies and national headwinds, Collins was unable to make significant inroads in the Peach State.

Collins, 59, prevailed during the primary, becoming the Republican nominee in June after a runoff. The owner of a trucking business, Collins has represented Georgia in the House since 2023, and attempted to cast Ossoff as out of touch with Georgian values. But his campaign was beset by questions about people in Collins’ circle, including a former staffer who reportedly shared Nazi and KKK images on social media.

Although the race was once viewed as the easiest pickup opportunity for Republicans, as Georgia shifted toward the right during the last election, Collins’ closeness to the president was seen as a boon for Ossoff, who has also been a formidable fundraiser. Heading into election night, Ossoff was leading in the polls.

With the projected victory, Democrats will retain a key seat, keeping their hope of winning a majority in the chamber alive.

【美国中期选举】纽约州投票机现故障 右翼指民主党欲窃取选举结果

美国中期选举期间，纽约州一个投票机出现故障。虽然当地选举官员坚称所有选票都会计入，但一些右翼意见领袖借此指控选举存在“选民舞弊”现象。

法新社报道，这起事件发生于星期二选举投票日（11月3日）当天，涉事投票站位于纽约州威斯特彻斯特县（Westchester County）。

县选举委员会说，发生涉及纸质选票的问题，导致全县各投票站的投票机无法接收选票。

不过，选举委员会强调，所有投票都会得到妥善保管，并且一定会得到统计；这些选票已放入应急票袋中。

威斯特彻斯特县部分地区属于纽约州第17选区。在这个选区，现任共和党众议员劳勒（Mike Lawler）与民主党对手康利（Cait Conley）展开激烈竞争。

值得注意的是，这个选区在2024年总统大选中曾投票支持时任民主党副总统哈里斯。

一些支持共和党总统特朗普的意见领袖抓住这次技术故障，在无证据情况下声称民主党人试图窃取选举结果。

这些人包括阴谋论者卢默（Laura Loomer）、保守派活动人士普雷斯勒（Scott Pressler），以及播客主持人米勒（Katie Miller），她也是白宫顾问斯蒂芬·米勒（Stephen Miller）的妻子。

纽约州选举委员会在社媒平台X上说，投票过程未受到任何干扰。

委员会说：“既定紧急投票程序已经启动；完成填写的选票在两党共同监管下被妥善封存，并将计入票数。”

委员会在随后又声明，此次技术故障的原因是投票机无法读取并接收选票，但强调受影响的扫描仪只是拒绝无法正确识别的选票，而非将这些选票错误地计入统计结果。

【美国中期选举】CNN出口民调：选民普遍不满特朗普表现

美国中期选举投票接近尾声，美媒对全国选民民调的初步结果显示，人们对国家现状、经济状况和总统特朗普的执政表现普遍感到不满。

美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）星期二（11月3日）晚发布的选民民调全国初步结果显示，全美范围约四分之三的选民对国家目前的发展方向感到不满，其中约四成甚至感到愤怒。

导致这种情绪的因素主要有两个，一是对特朗普的负面看法，二是对当前经济状况的不满。这两大因素最终会产生怎样的具体影响，仍有待观察，尤其是在此次竞争意外激烈的传统红州。

约六成选民不认可特朗普的执政表现，其中大概半数表示“非常不认可”；两年前曾支持特朗普的选民中，约有五分之一如今否定他的执政表现。

还有许多选民将当前的通胀压力归咎于特朗普；另有约三分之二的选民认为，是特朗普使国家经济状况恶化，其中大多数人指责特朗普的政策是生活费飙升的直接原因。

报道强调，上述结果只是基于出口民调，难免存在误差范围，这些数据尚未根据最终选举结果进行调整。

不过，许多早期的选民民调结果，与整个中期选举期间呈现出的政治态势相吻合。

选民对特朗普这届总统任期首两年表现的不满，并不仅限于经济层面。多数受访者认为，特朗普政府在移民执法方面太过火，且美国对伊朗采取军事行动的决定也是错误的。

除了领导人之外，选民对国会和最高法院的看法也偏向负面；对两大政党的评价则均处于“净负面”区间，其中，共和党受到的负面评价比民主党更严重。

还约有五分之一的受访者说，自己对两党都不信任。

Chris Pappas wins New Hampshire 2026 Senate election

Updated on: November 3, 2026 / 8:33 PM EST / CBS News

Washington — Democratic Rep. Chris Pappas defeated former GOP Sen. John Sununu in the New Hampshire Senate race, CBS News projects, keeping the seat in Democratic control after Sen. Jeanne Shaheen’s retirement.

Pappas, 46, has represented New Hampshire in the House since 2019, where he’s a member of the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus. He campaigned as an independent voice for New Hampshire, taking on a formidable opponent in Sununu, whose family has widespread name recognition in the state.

Sununu, 62, is the son of former Gov. John H. Sununu and brother of former Gov. Chris Sununu, and his name carries significant weight in New Hampshire. He sought a comeback bid to the upper chamber — after representing New Hampshire in the House and Senate for more than a decade, he was defeated by Shaheen in 2008.

With Sununu, Republicans saw one of few opportunities for a pickup this cycle, looking to flip the seat although New Hampshire hasn’t elected a Republican to the Senate since 2010. And though a Republican also hasn’t won in the state at the presidential level since 2000, Republicans have controlled the governor’s mansion since 2017.

As a number of GOP Senate candidates have faced surprisingly competitive races this cycle, amid the unpopular war in Iran and high gas and diesel prices, Republicans were more hopeful about Sununu, who has sought to distance himself from President Trump.

Late in the campaign, he released a spot saying, “The way Chris Pappas tells it, I’m President Trump’s long-lost son. I’ve never even met the man.” He promised to be independent, declaring that “when the president’s policies are bad for New Hampshire, I’ll oppose them.”

But Sununu’s efforts to distance himself from the president weren’t enough to overcome strong headwinds for Republicans.

With Pappas’ projected victory, Democrats hold on to a key seat as they eye possible flips in several races that could tip the scales in their favor and deliver a Democratic majority.
