About this episode
What happens if there's a tie in the presidential election? Polls continue to show a dead heat between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, both nationally and in key battleground states. There are scenarios where the 538 electoral votes up for grabs this election could be evenly split between the two candidates, resulting in a 269-269 tie. Fox News' senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram recently joined host Dave Anthony to discuss what would happen in this case and how Congress would ultimately decide the presidency. Chad looks back at previous elections where lawmakers chose a president and breaks down the "doomsday" scenarios that could transform the weeks leading up to Inauguration Day into a "hellscape." The conversation was fascinating but too lengthy to fit into our original segment. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Chad Pergram from FOX News and hear him explain why this could be one of the most unprecedented elections we've ever witnessed.
