KSL at Night: 11-6-2024

Hosts: Taylor Morgan and Rusty Cannon   Analyzing the election results of national races An historic moment last night as former President Donald Trump won the presidential election, now becoming the next president-elect. It was quite a blow for Democrats around the country, with the party losing control of the White House, the Senate, and possibly the House. We begin the show with in-depth analysis of key races around the country, sharing perspectives from KSL at Night hosts Rusty Cannon and Taylor Morgan.   How did the elections turn out here in Utah? Here at home, how did the elections play out? We shift gears and discuss the status of races here in the Beehive State, both with candidates and issues. In Utah County, voters faced long lines, printers out of ink, and a lack of ballots – what effect did these issues have on the electorate, and what’ll be done to be better prepared next time? The hosts discuss and share their thoughts.   Post-election takes from the Utah Republican Party It was a great night for Republicans abroad and here in Utah. Robert Axson, Chair of the Utah Republican Party joins KSL at Night to recap the election. He and the hosts discuss next steps for the party and what the future may hold for Utah as President-elect Trump prepares to return to the White House.   Post-election takes from the Utah Democratic Party Democrats saw some wins in Salt Lake County yesterday, while struggling statewide and nationally. Oscar Mata, Utah Democratic Party Vice Chair calls into KSL at Night to discuss next steps for his party. He and the hosts discuss the results of the presidential election, and what it means for Kamala Harris to lose.   Ranked-choice voting initiative fails in Idaho Our neighbors to the north rejected Proposition 1 last night, which would have implemented open primaries and ranked-choice voting. Could ranked-choice voting be on its way out the door? The KSL at Night hosts give their ideas on how this decision in Idaho could affect how we vote in Utah.   Final post-election thoughts from the KSL at Night hosts The Democratic Party saw many losses yesterday in the election. Could it be that the party has focused too much on hating Donald Trump and not enough on actual policies that would help Americans? Or was last night just a weird fluke? Taylor Morgan and Rusty Cannon end the show with their final thoughts on yesterday’s election. They also discuss the potential make-up of the 2028 presidential election.
