"Get rid of borders?" "No." "Get rid of SCOTUS?" "No." "Get rid of jails?" "No." @ShannonBream fires off a series of questions to NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani about the Democratic Socialists of America, an organization he proudly says he belongs to. After Mamdani rejects all three proposals, Bream asks whether the DSA will kick him out. He answers "No" again, this time with laughter. Watch the full @FoxNewsSunday interview this Sunday at 2 P.M. ET on Fox News Channel.

Not a single Republican won a statewide race in Georgia on Tuesday. Not the party’s billionaire nominee for governor. Not even longtime incumbents who coasted to easy victories in past cycles. mrf.lu/2VJFF

BREAKING: The Fox News Decision Desk can project that Democrat Troy Jackson will defeat Republican Sen. Susan Collins in Maine. The state has backed Democrats in every presidential election since 1992, but voters also elected Republican Susan Collins to five consecutive Senate terms. That record ends tonight.

🚨 The Fox News Decision Desk can project that Democrats will gain control of the U.S. Senate. They will win at least 51 seats, thanks to victories in North Carolina, South Carolina, Ohio, Texas, Kansas, and now Iowa, where Democrat Josh Turek will defeat Republican Ashley Hinson.

24-point swing away from Republicans from 2024 in Lindsey and Darline Graham's home county. Just brutal.
Credit to @stephenfhayes, who was saying weeks ago on the @thedispatch Podcast that the South Carolina Senate race was one to watch.

Just in: Rick Jackson has called Keisha Lance Bottoms to concede defeat, per campaign officials. #gapol
Shane Jackson, the son of GOP gubernatorial nominee Rick Jackson, offered a sobering assessment as he addressed supporters at the campaign’s election night party in Sandy Springs. “Unfortunately it looks like today isn't going the way we hoped,” he said.

About 1 million Georgians have now cast their ballots on Election Day, when Republicans are looking to make lost ground. With a little over two hours until polls close, hard to see total turnout today get to 1.4M. Here’s a look back at how past votes have broken down here. #gapol
Just how many Georgians need to vote Tuesday for Republicans to overcome the apparent Democratic edge in early voting? It might be the biggest question hanging over tonight’s midterm results. From the @ajc: ajc.com/politics/2026/11/ele…

A funny story about Michael Wilbon that shows how good of a guy he is: For years, ESPN employees were afraid to talk to OutKick publicly. A few years ago, I reached out to him for perspective on a story, assuming he wouldn't be able to comment on the record. In Wilbon voice, he responded: "You can quote all of this, Bobby." I said: "Are you sure? I don't want to get you in trouble." He said, "In trouble for what? I'm almost 70 years old. No one from the 860 or any fancy area code in Burbank is going to tell me who I can talk to. You came to me with a question. And I'm happy to answer it." Note: he is a legend. He gains nothing from talking to me or anyone else.
Michael Wilbon is the best to ever do it and an ever better guy. Get well soon, Mike. 👊
