Fox News Voter Poll: How Democrats took control of the Senate
Democrats flipped Senate seats across red and blue states as President Donald Trump's approval, inflation and gas prices dragged down GOP candidates.
60 Minutes
What the coverage shows
Most outlets frame the story as Democrats gaining Senate control, with CBS News, 60 Minutes, AP, Fox News and PBS all emphasizing the broader balance-of-power shift and live or post-election coverage. The New York Times is the lone outlet here to spotlight South Carolina specifically, while Axios instead highlights a New Hampshire win and The Economist and Reason broaden the frame to the overall House-and-Senate outcome. CBS News and AP also stress upset wins in red states, which Fox News and Reason similarly fold into a larger narrative about GOP setbacks.
