Cory Booker conceded that his party faces a difficult election on Tuesday but insisted he still sees a 'pathway' for Democrats to at least keep control of the Senate.
Senator Cory Booker is interviewed by Martha Raddatz of ABC News on"This Week", Nov. 6, 2022.Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., said his party faces a difficult election on Tuesday amid stiff headwinds over the economy but insisted he still sees a "pathway" for Democrats to at least keep control of the Senate.
"Even though our economy is tough, people think about it and say, 'wait a minute, this is the party trying to protect unions. This is the party that made sure we did things to lower prescription drug costs and lower health care costs. That this is the party at the end of the day that's trying to protect fundamental freedoms like the right to control your own body,'" he said.
Democrats earlier this summer were favored to keep control of the Senate amid an uproar over the scrapping of constitutional protections for abortion and lower gas prices, but as the calendar turns closer to Election Day, the party has been rebuffed by stubbornly high inflation and an avalanche of attack ads over crime.
Still, Booker predicted that voters would punish Republicans at the ballot box this Tuesday over ties to election deniers and backlash over last year's insurrection.
