0 anyway, unfortunately that's all the time we have left. we'll have full complete analysis tomorrow night and a lot to go over. a lot of angles we'll be covering. stay with the fox news channel for continuing election coverage. thank you for being with us. laura ingraham is up next. see you back here tomorrow night. >> laura: i'm laura ingraham and this is the ingraham from washington tonight. with more than two-thirds of the vote counted, republican glenn youngkin now has a clear advantage in the virginia gubernatorial race. fox news now projects that mcauliffe needs to win roughly two-thirds of the outstanding vote to change that outcome. it's a lety tall order. and the fox news decision desk is not yet ready to make a projection but again youngkin has a very clear and sdooif i have advantage at this moment. tonight, the seismic event that is this virginia's governor's race. we have reporters on the ground and full election analysis from some of the best political thinkers in this country throughout the hour and you've been hearing me talk about this for the better part of the last year. by all accounts, glenn youngkin has outperformed from deep blue suburban northern virginia to the rural southwest. and it's very important to remember, everyone has to remember this, that few really thought that this would have been possible just one year ago. but, in 9.5 short months corn pop's buddy has laid west to the dream of a post trump political nirvana. we virginians have watched in horror as biden has destroyed almost every advantage americans have over other citizens of other countries. our energy independence, our work force, our unity, our border, our military's prestige. then they saw another relic of the past terry mcauliffe promise more of the same adding fuel to the fire, the cynical and rav i had anti americanism that has infected our school. an errand boy for the teacher's union mcauliffe saw nothing wrong with loudoun county, all a big to do about nothing. a close race in a state that trump lost by ten that hasn't elected a republican governor for 12 years would have still been good news for the gop. but an outright win for youngkin is 9.8 on the richter scale with far less policies buried in the rubble. now, this night would not have been possible without the man determined to prove the critics wrong, glenn youngkin himself. he's one of the hardest working candidates we've ever seen. he wasn't afraid to campaign in liberal northern virginia. he wasn't afraid to take on the school boards and the radicals that are running our once great education system into the ground. he wasn't afraid to stand up for gun rights, for sane economic policies, and, yes, for american history. most people who are attacked savagely by the media machine fold. they melt. trump didn't. and glenn youngkin didn't either. he just kept pushing. remember how democrats felt election night a year ago? they were triumphant, they were elated. brag arts they were seemingly unstoppable. of course, republicans, man, demoralized, angry. oh, yeah, angry, fondant. many of you turned off your tvs for months. how you feeling now? you should feel really hopeful and optimistic. youngkin was right. this is a common-sense movement run by normal, average people who want a better life for themselves and their families. we love this country. a country which is not systematically racist, by the way. and we're sick of seeing people cancelled or threatened or intimidated or shamed for speaking their minds or saying no to a vaccine. and, by the looks of things on the other networks, they're taking all the wrong lessons from this i say ra. i think that the real ominous thing is that critical race theory, which isn't real, turned the suburbs 15 points to the trump insurrection-endorsed republican. >> we've seen the emergence of the delta variant of trumpism. the delta variant of trumpism. in other words, youngkin, same disease, but spreads a lot faster. it can get a lot more places. >> laura: remember when van jones was the big uniter who reached across the aisle? that's out the window. last year democrats had so many forces going their way, the covid panic, the blm hysteria, the vicious anti trump fervor. but tonight shows us trump's policies were in fact very popular because they actually worked. in retrospect, it may be that 2020 was not the beginning for the democratic left but its zeneth. they misred the e lector at and badly. joining me from 9:00 to 11:00 and he has his big board handy, bill, what can you tell us? doing a great job tonight. >> interrupt me anytime, some of you looking for laura shout it out. i want to show you something i just noticed, all right? and you would know this better than most because you live in the washington, dc area right? our nation's capitol, the northern virginia counties the most populated areas still a bit of an outstanding vote in fairfax, i'll show you that in a moment. this is stafford county, laura, a quickly-growing area southeast of northern virginia, as they call it there locally nova. look where youngkin is on the board here. you've got 10% of the vote outstanding. so he's picking up over 57% of the vote. why is that important? um, if you go back to november of last year, it's because joe biden flipped the county by two or three points, and now we come back to 2021 and in stafford here you see, these are the suburbs? you see it around richmond, laura. you see it here in stafford. the suburbs have come back to the republican party in a significant way and also, i would argue, that we're likely to see tomorrow in some of the exit polling, that the independent voter has shifted as well. you saw hall advantage in a lot of the pre polling before this election, independents and the margin you were seeing that favored glenn youngkin over terry mcauliffe. i'll spin around the stage here laura real quick, just because richmond city was outstanding but it's about 83% in so we're getting real close to getting an idea of what the outcome will be. relatively speaking, last november, biden was at 83%. four years ago in the governor's race, ralph northam was at almost 82%. come back to 2021, terry mcauliffe is well below that number. and, laura, i can find ten or 12 different counties across the entire map and find a similar pattern so far with mcauliffe underperforming there as well. >> laura: bill? >> yes. >> laura: can i just jump in one moment? >> sure. >> laura: the fact that christmas and the holidays are right around the corner and the panic that is setting in. i know we're focused a lot on the schools and rightly so. but the supply chain issue and the biden bleed on that, i'm sensing in northern virginia, kids play sports in northern virginia, people are panicked about that. and they're looking for someone to blame. do you think that might have come into play? >> it could be. laura, i think actually, what you could likely do if you were to analyze the last ten months of the presidency for biden, you could create your own list and throw a dart at it and pick supply chain, if that's your issue, covid if that's your issue. economy, if that's your issue, education, that's your issue. foreign policy. who is going to forget an american c-17 rolling down a tarmac in kabul afghanistan with 20 year old men bouncing off. we have never seen that image before. you wonder then, two trips to capitol hill, a president who could not get a deal or move people one-way or another after two trips to his democratic caucus, it makes you wonder, on that list that we're talking about, what have you managed well so far in your presidency? i wouldn't just say supply chain laura. you could choose from the entire list that i just ticked off there. >> laura: that's fair. >> you mentioned northern virginia, prince william has 10% outstanding, so we're getting close. i just want to check in here. there it is. fairfax county a hundred percent accounted for, mcauliffe over youngkin we'll look last november where were we biden was up six points higher, back to 2017, northam was just shy of 68%, and in 2021, terry mcauliffe is four points shy of the previous bench mark. >> laura: even, bill, in the bluest of blue, liberal fairfax county where you didn't think any progress for the republicans could be made, glenn youngkin made some tonight regardless of the outcome. bill, i'm riveted to your big board, so thank you, we'll be checking back with you in just a moment with another update >> now for reaction, let's turn to our election night panel mollie hemingway from the federalist, fox news contributor and mark meadows former trump white house chief of staff and american's first legal founder. molly, i think of obama campaigning for mcauliffe. i think of stacey abrams campaigning. i think of kamala. i think of joe biden stumbling around arlington last week. in the end, it looks like that mattered how much, molly? >> well, they clearly invested heavily in making sure that this was a secure democrat victory. i live here in virginia. we're not a purple state. we're a democrat state. democrat wins state wide office by ten points. joe biden won by ten points. our current governor democrat who's embroiled in all sorts of controversy with his own racism won by ten points. this is not wisconsin or pennsylvania or georgia or a narrow congressional district this is a very safe democrat area. this should have never had to bring out the big guns to keep this seat and they did and they still appear to be losing it. this is just absolutely huge news that speaks not just to the toxicity of the national democratic agenda, but also how that national democratic agenda, which we're all subjected to because they control the white house, the senate, and the house, but also how that's realized and how it affects people at the local level. it is absolutely true that parents were huge in this upset, because they don't like the racism of critical race theory and -- >> laura: they hate it. >> and how that's teaching kids. >> laura: they hate it. >> white, black, brown parents, everybody hates it, and they were not getting enough support from democrats, even though they, themselves, are frequently democrat. >> laura: now, i want to go now to mark meadows, because just four days ago, vice-president kamala harris made a sweeping comment about the relevance of this virginia race. watch. >> it is a bell weather for what happens in the rest of the country. what happens in virginia will, in large part, determine what happens in 2022, 2024, and on. >> laura: mark i agree with kamala harris. and shouldn't joe manchin and christian cinema be taking note tonight? >> they're taking note and also moderate democrats in the state of virginia and other states should be taking notice. listen, the only thing uglier for team biden tonight is hunter biden's art work. this is -- you mentioned, this was a seismic shift. it's a tsunami. i know that you haven't made the official call there at fox, but if you look at the outstanding votes, and those votes that are coming in -- and, candidly, they're coming in from those stronger democrat strong holds with absentee votes, there's just not enough to make up the difference. it will tighten a little bit but it will be governor youngkin. it will actually be a clean sweep with the lieutenant governor, the ag. and i would predict, even though the jury is still out, that todd gilbert and the work he's done for the house of delegates, that you'll flip it from blue to red in the house of delegates. so it is a bell weather. from here we go to nevada and wisconsin and other states. it's hopefully coming to a therapist near you. >> laura: yeah. >> because the policies of donald trump actually worked and candidly, parents have had enough. >> laura: this has to be a 50-state tra jizz steven going forward for the republican party. the republicans cannot like try to get together this rust belt thing and pick up one other state and write off california, write off new england, write off colorado. cannot do it. it has to be a common sense movement. you've been talking about this for years. obviously donald trump fought that and showed us in 2016 how to do it. what is the big lesson going forward assuming this goes away we think it's going to go in virginia and very close in new jersey, which we haven't even talked about yet. >> yes. well, first of all, i think what you are you're seeing in virginia tonight is peaceful patriotic parents rebellion, parents taking back their schools, taking back their communities, taking whack their state for true traditional american values. but as you said, this shows that the trump agenda, and emphasis on ordinary working people and their quality of life, safe, clean streets, patriotic schools, strong borders, fair trade policies, pro jobs economic policies. these can win in every single community and every state in the country. and i would just note, it was a year ago that president trump launched the 1776 commission to establish that road map to take back our schools. and now look what's happening in virginia. it is a beautiful thing to see. >> laura: yeah, and, molly, i don't think even the whole, you know, taking down the status, which, again, the left embraced as to, oh, great, we're making such progress, we're ripping down status, robert e. lee's hidden in some museum and teddy roosevelt in new york, they thought that was progress. but what they didn't understand, a lot of people didn't like it. polling guru from uva, larry savado went into full meltdown mode earlier tonight. watch. >> the issues that youngkin was running on, you may have the same view i have of critical race theory which is it was a phoney issue, it certainly is in virginia where it isn't taught, but people believe what they want to believe. you know, we're still in the trump era, right? you don't have to have the facts backing you up if people want to believe what you say, they will believe it. >> laura: so he's full on to the deplorables, back to the deplorables molly with larry's crystal ball smashed on the floor again tonight. >> yeah, i'm glad he's kind of outed himself as a left winger as opposed to pretending he was impartial but this is what the mcauliffe campaign was saying was that people were delusional to think critical race theory was taught in their schools even though it was. but all of this oddness that left wing part sans are pushing on america, they want to reject all of it. the hatred, the divisiveness, the hatred for the country, being told our republic was you are redeemable chaired to the other places. that is no way to have a country or people working together and people are very sick of it and rejecting it and unfortunately for democrats that's a big part of their messaging. this was a big part of defund the police and other left wing ideologies was part of what they reasonable on in 2020 and a lot of that progressive caucus is still pushing it. five cities across the nation that had defund the police measures up for a vote today and i'll be curious to see how those goes but i'm hearing that they're going down in flames as well. >> laura: another flashback to mcauliffe's parade of fools, biden predicted mcauliffe would win just a few days ago. >> we're gonna win. i think we're gonna win in virginia. i've not seen any evidence that, whether or not i am doing well or poorly, whether or not i've got my agenda passed or not, is going to have any real impact on winning or losing. >> laura: mark, he lands enter about three hours from scotland. they're proceeding going to wake him up and say, joe, we've got some unpleasant news for you. >> you're exactly right. but here's the other thing, laura, and both molly and steven have talked about this. it's a reminder of what works and what doesn't work. when virginians go to the gas pump and they're pumping their gas and they're paying more for gas than they have under donald trump, it's a reminder that these are failed policies. when they go to the grocery store and they're paying more in the grocery store, it's a reminder that the failed policies of the left are not working. and ultimately when they had supply chain issues and they're worried about christmas gifts potentially coming in, it is not president trump they're blaming, it is joe biden and terry mcauliffe and the left wing kind of agenda that is there. so this was really an historic night where virginians sided literally with the parent of school children, against terry mcauliffe. and larry sabato, let me tell you, chris said it on this show last night. you're not accurate. it was your lie that you're bringing forth. they do teach critical race theory. they may call it a different name in virginia. virginia parents know it and they showed up to let their voices be heard. >> laura: steven, i made a note of of this in the angle. you know, the left, they're going to take all the wrong lessons from this looks like a loss tonight, and a close race in new jersey, and joy reed, case in point tonight. >> these republicans are dangerous, that this isn't a party that's just another political party that disagrees was policy, that at this point, they're dangerous. they're dangerous to our national security, because stoking that kind of soft white nationalism eventually leads to the hardcore stuff. it leads to the january 6th stuff. >> laura: oh, my god, steven, they are addicted to january 6th. this is their drug of choice and apparently it's dangerous to have a secure border, cheap energy, and a growing economy. that's really dangerous for joy reed. this is insane. they're not learning anything from this loss tonight. nothing. >> no. they're going to keep digging in this same well of critical race theory, open borders, defunding the police, shutting down american energy, and america last across the board. it's a losing policy, it's a losing strategy. more than anything it's ground of hatred for american voters and that will never win, not in virginia not in the country. >> laura: we see terry mcauliffe is making his way to the lectern. there he is. he's speaking. let's go to him. >> to talk about how we needed to rebuild all of our schools here in the commonwealth of virginia and raise teacher pay and get every child access to a pre k education and everybody access to broadband here in the commonwealth of virginia. and we have continued to take that fight throughout this commonwealth. but, first of all, i want to thank my family. i want to start by thanking -- i want to thank my wife dorothy through her efforts as you know 13 million more meals served to needy children here in the commonwealth.
