BENSON BYTE: Martha MacCallum Weighs in on Last Night's Election Results
Description
Martha MacCallum, executive editor and anchor of The Story on Fox News, co-anchor of Fox News Politics, and author of Unknown Valor: A Story of Family, Courage, and Sacrifice from Pearl Harbor to Iwo Jima, joined The Guy Benson Show today to unpack the results from last night's off-year elections in NYC, NJ, and VA. MacCallum discussed the New Jersey governor's race and why Democrats' blowout win over Jack Ciattarelli caught many off guard, especially as Ciattarelli appeared close in the most recent polling. MacCallum analyzed how young and Latino voters appeared to swing back toward Democrats after previously moving towards Trump in 2024, and why economic and foreign policy issues may have played a key role in the Democrats' sweep. MacCallum also weighed in on Zohran Mamdani's tone-shifting victory speech, which leaned heavily into identity politics and grievance narratives. Finally, MacCallum explained how California's Prop 50 has once again flipped the redistricting debate on its head following Texas' redistricting efforts, and finally, she touched on King Charles' decision to strip Prince Andrew of his royal title.
