Unexpected Senate Battles & The Independent Wildcards

The Fox News Rundown

Show Notes

In the final days before midterm voting wraps up, Republicans are making the final push to maintain a slim majority - and flip any seats they can. Republican Congressman and U.S. Senate Candidate Mike Collins joins The Rundown to discuss his bid to unseat Democratic incumbent Jon Ossoff (D-GA), highlight his legislative record, and remind voters what is at stake should Democrats regain a congressional majority.

Later, Montana Independent Senate candidate Seth Bodnar breaks down his three-way race, addressing his push for rural healthcare reform, the need for Congress to reassert war powers amid conflict with Iran, and why running as an independent is starting to look like a viable campaign strategy.
