Roundup: Outstanding Races

Republican nominee Blake Masters lags incumbent Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly in Arizona, as we wait for that race to be called. GOP election officials there have decried Republican gubernatorial hopeful Kari Lake for spreading conspiracy theories about the vote counting process.

This episode: White House correspondent Tamara Keith, political reporter Ximena Bustillo, state politics reporter Laura Benshoff and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
