thought they were getting a tour of the ymca only to be stunned with something else operation final bely home surprised expwres were with a mortgage house. he served as u.s. army specialist joined after 9/11. injured and hit by iud in iraq and suffered a injury and now a mortgage free house. thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. that's it for this "special report" fair balanced and unafraid. we crammed it all. in jesse watters starts right now. hey, jesse. >> jesse: hey, bret. thank you. ♪ >> jesse: fox news alert. we are expecting the state of nevada to dump some ballot results any minute this hour. we are seeing a heated senate race play out there where republican adam laxalt is up about 15,000 votes but it's not a declared win just yet because clark county, meaning las vegas, still has over 50,000 more votes to count. laxalt's margins could slim down here. whenever clark county decide
4:01 pm
it's time to count their votes. >> whether we like it or not, there's no way that we can move any faster than we are currently moving. there are 50,000 ballots. just over 50,000 ballots that still need to be tallied. and over the course of the next three days we will get them into the system. >> jesse: if we are lucky we will know the results in another three days. ned can't even figure out how to work their cameras at some of these polling locations. they all went dark in washoe county last night. no big deal. i'm sure nothing illegal happened when the lights were out and the cameras were off. over in arizona, blake masters has been making some gains in the senate race against mark kelly but he is still down about five. the governor's race on the other hand is a dead heat. republican kari lake is pretty much neck and neck with hobbes. and we think the remaining votes could give her a boost. but, when are those votes coming in? well, maricopa county has about 400,000 votes left to count, can't figure it out. >> when do you anticipate the
4:02 pm
votes will be counted in total, those 400,000-plus votes. >> well, we have -- we will be going in to next week. there is some one onesie twos arizona law. see the lion share wrap up by early next week. >> early next week? can you give me a day talking monday? >> maybe, as long as you won't hold me to it. >> jesse: we don't want to hold you to it onesies twosieses maybe get results by sunday. florida with three times the population got results out election night. what's is taking arizona and nevada so long? arizona doesn't even start counting early votes until election day. they want the drama. they want delayed results. they designed it this way. they start with mail-in ballots, then they count day of ballots, and then they finally get around to drop off ballots. heaven forbid you count everything at the same time. that would make too much sense. and are they even counting around the clock?
4:03 pm
of course not. poll workers only work from 9:00 to 5:00. what's the hurry anyway? it's just an election. and when the poll workers are counting, they are opening up envelopes one by one and challenging signatures that don't match. >> in arizona, the law also allows voters to cure a signature, so, because we can or we have trained staff who look at every single signature that that voter might have on file to find that comparison, if we aren't able to find that comparison signature, we do reach out to the voter. we call them, we text them, we email them if we have that information on file and we send them a letter. voters have by law until wednesday at 5:00 p.m. to cure that signature. >> jesse: hey, michael, this is paul over at maricopa county polling station, can you give us a call back? it's about your signature on your ballot. ann marie, we will have to send paul out a letter. they are just sitting around for people to mail in a new
4:04 pm
signature? arizona is like the girl that everybody is ready to go out to dinner and she hasn't even showered yet. take your time, honey. the reservation was at 7:30 but you know whether a? it doesn't matter. we will go hungry. in nevada, it's just a free for all come election day. they have no structure. just like arizona. they start counting all votes on election day. even ones sitting in piles for weeks. but in nevada, they mix them all together in a pile. the mail-in ballots are mixed in with the days of votes and mixed in with the dropped off ballot and oh yeah they give voters another week to fix their signatures, too. so what's going on here? elections used to be decided on election night. "american idol" can handle millions of votes in a commercial break but it takes arizona, nevada a week? none of it makes sense because they don't want the system to make sense. the longer some of these races drag out for, the better it is for democrats. because they have created a system centered around ballots
4:05 pm
not votes. it's not about winning your vote anymore. it's not about persuading you. it's about flooding the state with as many ballots as possible and getting them filled out democrat. and you'll never guess who is involved in the ballot game. the second gentleman, kamala's main squeeze. >> kamala and doug -- by the way, doug crisscrossed the country. i think he did -- he spent more time making sure that the folks who actually count the votes in these states do it honestly. and thank you, pal. [applause] >> jesse: doug emhoff is in charge of election security? is this a joke? the vice president's husband and entertainment lawyer is crisscrossing the country under the radar making sure the right people count the votes? joe biden's pal? it's easier to have a ballot strategy than it is to have an inflation strategy, i guess. and it works. want to know why someone like
4:06 pm
john fetterman was able to win? over a million people in pennsylvania voted early. you get 50 days before an election to get your ballot in. 50 days. so democrats have a month and a half head start to work their ballots. over 20% of all ballots in pennsylvania came in before election day. the democrats were working their tails off for those 50 days. were the republicans? i don't know. it doesn't seem like it. fetterman hid his condition for months. debated a week before the election, showed he couldn't talk but by then it didn't matter. fetterman had banked hundreds of thousands of votes already. democrats who voted earlier for fetterman and saw that debate sorry, it's too late. in arizona, we're seeing the same thing play out. katie hobbs didn't even debate kari lake. she didn't think she had to. she was secretary of state and she knew the game better than anyone. arizona had about a million and a half early ballots come in. do you think it was because
4:07 pm
people couldn't wait to vote for katie hobbs? probably the lamest candidate of this election? no. they just flooded arizona with ballots. katie is the secretary of state is in charge of running the elections where, you know, there happened to be an ink shortage that blew out 20% of polling machines in maricopa county on election day. how does a candidate for governor get to be in charge of running the election for governor? well, because she refused to step down and the liberal media didn't put any pressure on her. the only reason this race is tight is because kari lake is a great candidate. but we didn't see that play out in some of these other races where, you know, we will be honest republicans didn't put out the best candidates. and florida got its red wave because desantis had a great record and a great campaign and we found out he won that night because they count early and around the clock and knocked out the shenanigans. how do they pump these ballots out there? well, people have to request them or they don't.
4:08 pm
our producer at "primetime" says he got six ballots sent to his old address and he didn't request a thing. he doesn't even live in the same state anymore. and our other producer has a grandmother who would be 116 years old. she has been dead for a while, but she has been getting ballots for the last few election cycles. you can also request ballots online. can you request ballots for friends and neighbors online? who is checking? so what do republicans do? they can't rely on election day voting anymore. you got to do something earlier. they have to get in on the early voting game. i mean, the early ballot game. because that's what's going on here. let's turn to kellyanne, conway former counselor to president trump and fox news contributor. does this explain what's going on here, kellyanne? >> it does, sadly. you are right. we have to bank those votes when we can i think the republicans are taking a chance that grand pa can get out of the bathroom
4:09 pm
let alone the house on election day to vote. why not get his vote early if we can many people like me like to show up in person and vote on the day. that's my choice. but we do know many people also in arizona, particularly, took their ballot on election day, brought the ballot there, rather than going inside to vote. i see 290,000 votes like that. you can't do that in florida. florida has a great process, jesse. they will not accept early ballots on election day. they start tallying early ballots early. and then they get those election day ballots put everything together and tell us that day who the winners are. in georgia, they have voter i.d. so they don't do this cumbersome time consuming process of verification how you just described in a fashion. it's ridiculous. by the way, i don't feel secure about that. i think the average person would say wait a second sometimes i scribble my signature. sometimes i do slower.
4:10 pm
and the idea that in arizona you have to receive the ballot, process it, and then verify the signature and then you have time to cure is what is slowing down this process. i think it jeopardizes the one person, one vote constitutional right enshrined in our great document. buff we have solutions. florida does a great job. georgia does a great job. and if we just had voter i.d. voter i.d. isn't racist. voter i.d. is actually efficient. because you show your i.d., you vote, and georgia requires voter i.d. for mail-in ballots as well. i think florida, ohio, vermont, in 2020 did the best job of reporting their results early. and these other folks don't. now, adam laxalt, who is the frontrunner, and i believe the next senator in nevada flipping that from blue to red will also flip that governorship from blue to red, jesse. he put out a tweet a few hours ago. everybody should look at that tweet. about 50,000 more votes. of those catherine the woman
4:11 pm
with three names and no accomplishments in nevada she needs 63% of those. she needs 63% of those ballots to actually win. but we may not have a senator -- a senate candidate declared the victor and certified as the winner for two more weeks. >> jesse: it's the stupidest thing you have ever seen. it really is the stupidest thing. >> democracy is on the ballot. turns out of the ballot is not even on the ballot. and jesse, you are right. >> jesse: doug emhoff the second jha gentleman is in charge of counting the votes. >> i feel better already. >> jesse: here is a statement from former president donald trump. this is a scorcher. right it ron desantis oh my god a classic. fox is all in for governor ron desanctimonious. an average republican governor with great public relations who didn't have to close up his state but did, unlike other republican governors whose overall numbers for republican
4:12 pm
were just average, middle of the pack, including covid and who has the advantage of sunshine where people from badly run states up north would go no matter who the governor was just like i did when i endorsed him, it was as though to use a bad term, a nuclear weapon went off. and then i got ron by the star of the democrat party andrew gilliam who was later revealed to be a crack head by having two massive rallies by tens of thousands of people at each one. i also fixed his campaign, which had completely fallen apart and now ron desanctimonious is playing games. the fake news asks him if he is going to run if president trump runs and he says i'm only focused on the governor's race. i'm not looking into the future. well, in terms of loyalty and class, that's really not the right answer. your reaction, kellyanne conway? >> i guess truth social doesn't have the 280 character limit.
4:13 pm
i am just hearing that for the first time as you are reading it since i was setting up on nevada and arizona. here's what i think. i'm glad both men, donald trump and ron desantis are in the republican party and have records of accomplishment that people can point to and want to emulate in their own state and people who want to run for office because they are inspired by candidates, by leaders like them who don't back down who get things down work with volume and velocity. i would love to see. ryan kemp. i think we need more unity and less divisiveness in the republican party. guess what? we have the best policies and messages we don't have unity right now. the democrat have no good policies and no aspirational, hopeful, forward looking messages but they showed a lot of unity last week gining up their base and paid off in some of these elections. >> jesse: i want to see all hands up too in georgia. >> show up in georgia, everybody. got this get this done. >> jesse: these two are on a
4:14 pm
collision course and the former president has come out guns blazing. thank you so much kellyanne conway. >> thank you. >> jesse: the new house speaker is about to join us exclusively for his first interview since the midterms. that's next. ♪ i recommend nature made vitamins because i trust their quality. they were the first to be verified by usp... ...an independent organization that sets strict quality and purity standards. nature made. the number one pharmacist recommended vitamin and supplement brand.
4:17 pm
4:19 pm
>> jesse: fox news alert maricopa, arizona just said it will not release any more results tonight. still waiting on nevada. [laughter] all right. we're trying to make sense of this midterm election and as more numbers come in the red waive is actually becoming clearer and clearer. so much so that republicans are actually on track to win the
4:20 pm
total popular vote by 6 points. republican candidates nationwide notched more than 50 million votes a number far greater than the democrats' showing in 2018 the year that the dems won about 40 house seats. right now the republicans 52-46% in the house. a 6 million vote margin. how did republicans only manage to pick up nine seats so far in the house? i don't know. house minority leader kevin mccarthy is poised to take nancy's gavel though and "primetime" expects him to start wielding his power right away. will there be investigations into the biden crime family, the origins of covid and our wide open southern border? we hope so. but rumors out of washington are suggesting that because of this razor thin margin, is he going to have his hands full with the freedom caucus kevin mccarthy joins us now for his first interview since the midterm
4:21 pm
election. i will call you speaker to get it out of the way. speaker, tell us what happened a 6 million vote margin, no one predicted that. but the house pick-ups aren't as big as people thought? >> well, if you look at it, what was our mission? to win the majority, to stop biden's agenda and fire nancy pelosi all of that is accomplished. you are correct. 6 million more votes as of today. a higher per sean damage of the overall vote we had in 2010 when we picked up 63 seats. what you really have to look at in 2010 sitting at 178. in the last four years, we are the only republicans to win. when everybody thought we would lose the last cycle, we picked up 14. again, we will pick up this time as well. remember, in the house, they don't give gavels out by small, medium and large. they just give you the gavel. we're going to be able to govern. on that very first day, after being sworn in, we will repeal 87,000 new irs agents and send that to the senate.
4:22 pm
>> jesse: you are coming out of the gate strong. tell me about the investigations. we have got to get the truth out here. this stuff with biden and china and ukraine and the banking records. the treasury wire reports we got to understand what he's going on here. that's a threat to democracy. people have to know about that. are you on board? , 100 percent. already started that and information to be kept. you will find that jim jordan will be chairman of judiciary. you have comer chairman of oversight and accountability. we have a responsibility in the house to hold the government to be accountable. that means with your tax dollars, that means what's going on. why don't we know where the origins of covid began? why don't we know what happened those last 60 days of afghanistan so we never have 13 gold star families again? and why don't we know why the doj went after parents and called them terrorists because they simply wanted to go to school board meeting and have a say in their kids' education.
4:23 pm
that's the start of the ability woe have at accountability. remember, with that gavel, regardless of the number of how high or over 218 you are, you have subpoena power and we will use it. >> jesse: the president called you on the phone. how did that go. >> it was kind of short. he congratulated me. so for anyone who thinks we didn't win the majority. joe believes we did as well. >> jesse: was it a civil conversation? you guys are really going to turn up the heat. he must know that. >> yeah, it was short. he just wanted to call me, congratulate from that point, talk about where we can work together. look, i said i will work with anybody that wants to put america first and move us in the right direction. we have an economy that's failing. we have got a challenge where we don't have energy independence we not only should be energy independent. we should be selling our natural gas to our allies but also to our adversaries. why don't we make china dependent on us? we need to secure our border. i laid this all out to the president and told them i will work with you if you are willing
4:24 pm
to work on these items. >> jesse: i'm glad you didn't send to to voice mail like the saudis did. are you concerned about your right flank? there has been some turbulence over there about handing the you the gavel. what's your play there. >> i'm not concerned. think about this. since i have been leader for the last four years we have only gained seats. it's the goal of winning the majority. we won the majority. i think i accomplished the goal that we wanted to. we want to have a very open process. we are going to have a smaller majority. we are going to find that we work together. think about what else we did. not only we won the majority we beat the dccc chair that has not happened in 42 years. we won seats that biden won by 1. we won in new york and oregon and california and texas, we won across this nation. >> jesse: what do you think the ultimate number you are going to hit in the house is going to be after you finish counting.
4:25 pm
>> we will see when they finish counting i think we will pick up more seats in california. quaky porter is a seat i believe at the end of the day we win. we have new star from jen kiggans in virginia beach. delacruz. john james wesley hunt in houston. this party has expanded like we have never seen before. these are new, fresh faces that are going to be rock stars in the republican party for the future. thank you for coming on "primetime." >> thank you, jesse. >> jesse: it hay come to herschel caulker's run off in virginia. he is ted cruz and turning the corner join us next ea driving, . (customer) something like that... (burke) well, here's something else: with your farmer's policy perk, new car replacement, you can get a new one. (customer) that is something else. (burke) get a whole lot of something with farmers policy perks. ♪ we are farmers. bum-pa-dum, bum-bum-bum-bum ♪

4:30 pm
4:31 pm
happens in georgia. neither herschel walker or raphael warnock hit the 50% voter threshold on tuesday, so, once again, in georgia, there's going to be run off in december. senator ted cruz is joining herschel walker this week on the campaign trail and they both join me live right now. all right, herschel, are you feeling any pressure? this could all come down to georgia. >> well, to be honest with you, i feel no pressure because i was built for this. and i'm ready to go out and win this seat fight for the people. this has nothing to do with herschel walker. i'm foight for the people because senator warnock done everything against the georgia people. voted against them. he gave crime to. they he gave them inflation. he put men in women's sports. i'm going out fighting for the people. >> jesse: are you going to do anything differently this time around than you did last time? >> well, the only thing go different go into some of the places i didn't get to vote to
4:32 pm
make sure i get those vote. they need to know that i'm there for them. i think senator warnock has proven who he is there for. he voted with joe biden 96% of the time. those people need to realize what has he done since he has been in office? do they have more money in their pocket? no. do they have -- look at that utility bill? look at the things he has done since he has been in office. and i got to show them that and i got to let them see that because he is a hypocrite and being a pastor, i say this: how can he keep the old mighty oath to the almighty god and he keep it for them. he hasn't kept it for neither -- nobody, it proves the type of man he really is. >> jesse: cruz lead blocker here. open some holes for herschel. what's your strategy going to be? i mean this is down to the wire. >> well, look. i think the stakes are enormous. once again, the fate of the country depends on georgia. and so for the men and women of georgia. i think they are energized. we are lehr to rally right now.
4:33 pm
we got over 2,000 people that are here right now that have come out to support herschel. herschel is going to win this race. and i got to say, the odds are very high that control of the senate is going to come down to georgia. that means all across this country it makes a huge difference whether you live in georgia or you don't what happens here. the election is on december 6th. i will say to every person in georgia, the country is counting on you, come out. bring your friends, bring your family, bring your loved ones, you are standing up and defending the people of texas and to everyone else, right now please go to team herschel.com. team herschel.com, make a contribution, they are going to spend millions and millions of dollars trying to attack this good man. it's not going to work and but it is going to be incumbent on all of us to stand up and say, look, the country is ready to turn away from the insanity, from the crime, from the inflation, from the open borders, from the corruption, from the abuse of power of the
4:34 pm
radical socialists that have taken over the democrat party. and i'm here to tell you, jesse, herschel walker is going to win this race. >> jesse: all right now are you guys going to have desantis there to campaign for you or are you going to have donald trump there to campaign? are you going to bring in the heavy hitters like the democrats did. >> i'm bringing in everybody. everybody that wants to help me win great people of georgia because they deserve this seat. senator warnock went to washington and he forgot about all the georgia people i'm not. the georgia people all of my family no matter what the color of their skin. only thing senator warnock see is black. he don't see that there is other people that live here as well. he made statements like america need to apologize for its whiteness. makes statement like america, the biggest problem with them is racism. why don't he get out of racism and learn redemption. learn forgiveness and learn to move on and make this country better together. we can't divide this country. we got to come together and that's how we make it better.
4:35 pm
>> amen. >> jesse: new name is team herschel.com, are is that the new name. >> that is it. i want everyone to go to team herschel.com. become a part of team herschel. >> jesse extend an invitation in particular. i want to invite joe biden to come campaign for raphael warnock and kamala harris come campaign for raphael warnock and stacey abrams to come campaign for raphael warnock. their agenda is radical and it doesn't reflect the values of the people of georgia that's why herschel walker is going to win. >> jesse: send beto there as well. tell everybody in georgia "primetime" says hi. >> thank you. >> the media is now saying john fetterman should be president. >> my name is john fetterwoman. [cheers and applause]
4:41 pm
>> jesse: i don't know about you guys but i was shocked by what happened in pennsylvania this week. john fetterman is going to be a senator. now, that in and of itself concerns me and i have been saying for a while this guy is going to get eaten alive in d.c. maybe i'm missing something. because listen to what the media is saying now. >> fetterman as a nominee at some point for president, i know there is some variables, obviously. [laughter] >> a few. >> and the way he ran ahead of biden as you were saying ran ahead of trump. it makes you wonder about his future. >> jesse: president? he hasn't even been sworn yet and all of a sudden he is the next obama? what exactly did you see on the campaign trail that made you think, you know what? this guy is presidential timber. >> here's what i think we have to fight about inflation right now. that's what we need to fight about inflation. we all have to make sure that everyone who works is able to -- that's the most american bargain that if you work full time you
4:42 pm
should be able to live in dignity is well true. going to these vocational schools, able to create a career to way -- excuse me, to wayne, reach a high salary and supporting to reduce those costs are critical, too. >> jesse: 1600 pennsylvania avenue, here he comes. adam carolla is comedian and host of truth yeller. do you think the democrats are on to something here, adam? >> well, they do this all the time, right? i mean, they did it with biden. biden was locked in his basement. they didn't know what his policies were. they did it with beto o'rourke, stacey abrams. remember the name michael avenatti? remember when these same people were swooning over michael avenatti three years ago? >> jesse: yep. >> they are like teeny boppers who get caught up with the next tiger beat sensation and put the poster on the wall. >> jesse: they want something new and they don't want it to have any history at all.
4:43 pm
and they don't even really care what the candidate believes in as long as the candidate is new and is fresh and does what you tell it to do. >> but it's also a real sign of the times, which is they don't even know what his policies are. i don't think anyone knows what his policies are. i don't think he knows what his policies are. is he for fracking? is he against fracking? although know is he had a stroke and he was being picked on and although that's the way they couched it. i don't think he was being picked on. people are being realistic and vying to vet somebody. but he, in a weird way, it was fortuitous because all we did was focus on the stroke and how mean dr. oz was and nobody focused on his horrible bernie sandersesque policies. >> jesse: you are exactly right.
4:44 pm
he became a victim and democrats love victims. they found a way to run a victim for president now. is this just a one off line on a capable show or do you think this could actually happen? >> i would be surprised but you know, with the new narrative that we love the victim and we love the intersectional status and looking for everyone's status in this horrible victim society we have built, well then why not elect the biggest victim to the highest land in the office -- or in the country. >> jesse: and his wife is a bisexual brazilian immigrant. checking all kind of boxes. adam carolla, the old yeller. go check it out. truth yeller. guess how much money joe biden is spending on an electric fairy
4:45 pm
that nobody wants. >> this new electric fairy is going to cost $50 million. >> that's a lot of money. suffering from sinus congestion, especially at night? try vicks sinex for instant relief that lasts up to 12 hours. vicks sinex targets congestion at the source, relieving nasal congestion and sinus pressure by reducing swelling in the sinuses. try vicks sinex. >> tech: when you get a chip in your windshield... trust safelite. ♪ upbeat, catchy music ♪ >> tech vo: this couple counts on their suv... as they travel for their small business. so when they got a chip in their windshield... they brought it to safelite... for a same-day in-shop repair. we repaired the chip right away. and with their insurance, it was no cost to them. >> woman: really? >> tech vo: plus, to protect their glass, we installed new wipers too. that's service the way you need it.

>> jesse: most of the country isn't happy the direction the country is. in they don't know how great the infrastructure bill is yet. >> the problem is the major piece of legislation we passed and some of it bipartisan takes time to be recognized. for example, you got over a trillion dollars worth of infrastructure money but not that many spades have been put in the ground. anybody who wants us to walk away from building those roads and bridges and internet. >> jesse: we recognize you, joe. we recognize the trillion
4:51 pm
dollars you spent. but we have to know where's all the cash going? where are the roads and bridges? where's the internet? well, we found one project in arizona, a $25 million anti-racist bird watching bridge in the middle of nowhere. folks there really didn't seem to appreciate it. >> absolute waste of money. >> it is definitely not a place that i would have recommended that we build a foot bridge. >> probably like most programs of that type a gigantic waste of money. the proverbial bridge to nowhere. >> jesse: that's not all. we visited another project, a $20 million heated sidewalk in new hampshire. and the people in that town weren't that thrilled either. >> we do not need heated sidewalks on main street. doesn't have any stores there. >> the money could probably be used toward something more beneficial. >> it's the stupidest thing they ever came out with. >> jesse: we're are not done recognizing joe biden we went to rural washington state to check out his latest vital project.
4:52 pm
