Summary

With the 2022 Midterms only a year away, voters are wondering whether a Republican-controlled House is in their future. With the recent crises facing the Biden Administration and Democratic infighting over spending bills, the likelihood of a GOP takeover has certainly increased. Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-WA) joins to discuss this and other issues on Capitol Hill. The Virginia Governor's race is in the home stretch and a new FOX News Poll shows Republican Glenn Youngkin has moved ahead of Democrat Terry McAuliffe, less than a week before the election, a big shift from two weeks ago when McAuliffe was ahead by five points. FOX News Radio Political Analyst and Political Editor at National Journal, Josh Kraushaar explains Youngkin’s eight-point advantage and what to expect in the closing days.
