2022 Governors

On Monday's CNN This Morning, co-host Don Lemon tried to undermine Republican complaints about the negative effects of bail reform in New York during an interview with (eventually victorious) Republican congressional candidate Adam Lawler.

The historical averages suggested a "red wave" of some size in the 2022 midterms. But the media's Election Night routine was slightly blander when there was no obvious tilt toward Republicans, but instead a tilt toward all incumbents. We had no cries of "whitelash" or talk of voters throwing two-year-old temper tantrums.

On Wednesday evening, after a disappointing showing for the GOP in Tuesday's midterms, the three leftist evening news broadcasts sought to further alienate the few right-leaning viewers they have by gloating over Democrats exceeding expectations by not getting wiped out as is common during a president's first midterm election. CBS went the extra mile by virtue signaling over the first openly-…

MIAMI – If Republicans could not score their “red wave” victories predicted by many pundits – and even some Democrats – in these midterm elections, what’s next for them? All the issues were on their side – inflation, high gas and food prices, an open border, underperforming schools. If they couldn’t win with this gale wind at their backs, on what issues can they prevail?

MSNBC's Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough and PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton teamed up on Wednesday to react to Stacey Abrams losing Georgia’s gubernatorial election for the second consecutive cycle by comparing her to Moses.

CNN political commentator and co-host of ABC’s The View, Ana Navarro joined the former’s Wednesday election coverage to react to the results in her native Florida where Gov. Ron DeSantis easily won re-election by almost 20 points. For Navarro, the conventional wisdom about DeSantis is wrong because to get that massive win “he gamed the system” by creating “an unlevel playing field.”…

With the dust still settling from an Election Day that saw record turnout across the country, it’s clear Republican victories were limited with many Trump-backed candidates failing epically. But the cast of ABC’s The View was as miserable as ever, falsely suggesting there was still “tremendous voter suppression” despite admitting there was “huge turnout” and boasting that voters were…

NPR was roundly bashed on Twitter on Election Night for its florid spin against Arizona's Republican gubernatorial nominee, Kari Lake. The Republicans are election deniers, the Democrats defend election integrity. That spin is tidy. 

Following a disappointing night full of failures (and some highs) for Republicans, the Wednesday morning’s broadcast network news shows each moments of gloating and outright laughter that included claims such as country was reminded to not “bet against Joe Biden,” that January 6 mattered, and voters bought the narrative that Republicans were tied to the Paul Pelosi attack.

NBC senior national correspondent Tom Llamas said it best Tuesday night when he noted “Democrats would love these kind of numbers anywhere, specifically Florida,” in response to Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis winning a majority of Latinos in his runaway victory against Democrat Charlie Crist; a bright spot in what turned out to be wet blanket Election Day for Republicans.

After spending hour after hour sticking to horse race results and CNN’s magic walls, the liberal network’s first piece of analysis reminded us of why they’re still a laughing stock of a network as a trio of lefties marveled at Democrats winning back governors mansions in some of the deepest blue states with “stellar” Wes Moore in Maryland and lesbian Maura Healey in Massachusetts.

The liberal media cranked the propaganda meter up to 100 before and during the midterm elections, warning that Big Tech was acting as a conduit for “election misinformation” and not censoring enough people for pushing “conspiracy theories.” 

One of the early races to be called on Election Day was the Florida gubernatorial race when incumbent Republican Ron DeSantis trounced Democrat Charlie Crist by a historic margin, and the key to that victory was flipping historically blue Miami-Dade County red. But according to ABC’s Maria Elena Salinas, the county flipped because Democrats had given up fighting for Florida and the “…

Over the weekend, it was fake news deja vu all over again as MSNBC host Ali Velshi repeated discredited claims that Republican Brian Kemp engaged in shady activity to get himself elected governor in 2018. This election misinformation redux came during an interview with Democrat Stacey Abrams on Saturday morning during the time slot left open by the recent canning of race provocateur…
