House conservative emerges with 2028 presidential pick after GOP's midterm massacre: 'I am all in'

Fox News · CBS News and CBS News report on the fallout from Tuesday's midterm elections, in which Democrats took the House and, by Fox News's projection, at least 54 Senate seats. Fox News puts the House split at 240 Democratic seats to 147 Republican so far, with dozens of races still uncalled. CBS News says the House gains came from flipping more than two dozen Republican-held seats, including once-safe districts and areas of South Texas.

CBS News adds that last year's mid-decade redistricting shaped the outcome. Texas Republicans redrew maps hoping to gain as many as five seats but netted one, while Democrats captured two red districts there. Texas also elected its first Democratic senator and governor in decades. California voters approved a plan that delivered all five seats Democrats targeted.

Fox News focuses on the Republican response. Rep. Marlin Stutzman of Indiana said he is backing Secretary of State Marco Rubio for 2028 and urged his party to improve its messaging. He proposed that Republicans stress having secured the border and consider work visas, not citizenship, for people in the country illegally.
