Ohio, South Carolina and Mississippi shift in Senate forecast

The campaign crowds are visible. The voters who will answer a poll are harder to find. That contrast runs through FOX 29 Philadelphia's midterm report, which moves from Texas rallies to the difficulty of reaching people by phone or text.

Reporter Doug Luzader highlights changes in the Fox News Power Rankings Senate forecast for Ohio, South Carolina and Mississippi. These are shifts in projections, not election results, as President Donald Trump makes his closing campaign push.

Texas also features prominently, with footage of Democrat and Republican , the state's Senate nominees. Trump tells reporters, "I think we've made a big impact."

The segment has drawn about 68,000 views in sixteen hours, already far beyond the station's usual first-day audience for regular videos. Its comment section is also unusually busy, with repeated questions about whether polls can reliably capture the electorate.

The report itself takes up that question. An archived commentator describes particular difficulty getting Republicans to respond, and the studio conversation turns to campaign texts and the challenge of reaching voters. "It's a game of cat and mouse to some degree, as people get more and more difficult to reach," Luzader says.
