Summary
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:
- Election Day Recap: Another disappointing result for Republicans across the country. In Kentucky, Andy Beshear (D) won reelection in his gubernatorial campaign. Republicans in Virginia lost control of the state House—meaning that Democrats now control both chambers of the Virginia legislature. Meanwhile, Ohioans voted in favor of establishing abortion as a state constitutional right. Locally, Republicans in Pennsylvania and New Jersey struggled—with Judge Dan McCaffery defeating Judge Carolyn Carluccio to win a seat on Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court.
- Listeners weigh-in on why they believe Republican candidates underperformed on November 7th. How can Republicans drive greater voter turnout moving forward? Several poll workers note that too few Republican voters are aware of early voting—and very few take advantage of mail-in ballots.
