- Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., expressed disappointment Tuesday night at the lack of Republican wins in the midterm elections.
- “Definitely not a Republican wave, that is for darn sure,” Graham said in an interview on NBC News. “I think that we are going to be at 51,52 when it is all is said and done in the Senate.”
- NBC anchor Lester Holt asked whether the Republican Party’s mediocre performance in the midterm was a result of the “Donald Trump effect,” meaning association with the former president may have hurt Republican candidates.
