	Description:		Ron takes an in depth look at the US mid-term election results. Republicans will have a slim majority in House of Representatives, not what they had expected at all. At least 20 seats fewer, maybe more like 25 fewer than forecast. The Senate will be 50-50 or possibly could have 51 Democrats, depending on a runoff in Georgia next month. If it's 50-50 it will be what it's been the past two years. Ron says there's been an unexpected boost for President Joe Biden, who is now more likely to run again, while heavy blows are raining down on Donald Trump, whose hand-picked candidates mostly lost in the important races. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis won re-election by 20 points and emerges as strong rival to Trump for 2024 .
