Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt responded to big wins for Democrats and abortion rights in Tuesday’s off-cycle elections by blaming GOP “messaging” while admitting in her view Republicans taking back power to “keep our country” should be the main goal.

Lamenting that “nearly seven in ten” Americans said abortion will be important to their vote in 2024, Earhardt told her fellow “Fox & Friends” co-hosts, “Republicans have to figure out what their messaging is.”

Voters in Ohio enshrined the right to abortion into their constitution and chose to make recreational use of marijuana legal on Tuesday. Kentucky voters re-elected their Democratic governor. Democrats flipped the Virginia House of Delegates while holding their majority in the state Senate, crushing GOP Governor Glenn Youngkin’s hopes to install an abortion ban, and likely damaging any possible presidential plans he might have. At the local level, many far-right school board candidates lost to Democratic candidates.

“We looked at this midterm election as a way to gauge how Republicans or how Democrats react to, going forward for 2024,” she said, describing Tuesday’s election. “So Republicans need to look at all of these numbers and really think about what’s more important.”

“Yes, it’s most people that are Republicans are probably pro-life. And we love our babies, and I love being a mother. But what’s most important: Republicans taking over and Republicans being able to keep our country.”
