Republicans dominated races across the country, from picking up the governor of Virginia to the city of Seattle\u2019s attorney\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin congressional candidate Derrick Van Orden predicted the electoral prospects for Democrats have narrowed out of existence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople are absolutely angry,\u201d he said. \u201cThey want to be able to have a say in their child\u2019s education. They want to be able to have a say in whether or not they want the government is able to force them through mandates to do things they don\u2019t want to do. That was a referendum on the failed big government, socialist policies of the Biden-Harris administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) is also feeling optimistic about Republican chances next November. A major Democrat donor group recently announced they won\u2019t be focusing on taking his seat, placing the focus on what they see as better pick-up opportunities in Massachusetts and Maryland.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis is buoyed by the results in Virginia and the subsequent Democrat abandonment in his state. He announced he\u2019d be implementing even more measures to protect Florida\u2019s election systems, eyeing an opposite approach taken by Joe Biden\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy says Republicans will soon release a &#8220;parents&#8217; bill of rights&#8221; focused on education across the country: &#8220;You have a right to know what&#8217;s being taught in school. You have a right to participate.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4cFovqDbt9\">https:\/\/t.co\/4cFovqDbt9<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/EZP1fuumfd\">pic.twitter.com\/EZP1fuumfd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CBS News (@CBSNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CBSNews\/status\/1455949536623538178?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 3, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Most emboldened by the results nationwide is GOP House Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.). In Virginia, parental rights took over the debate and pushed Republican Glenn Youngkin over the line. Upon noticeable support, McCarthy announced his caucus would introduce a Parents\u2019 Bill of Rights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe make this promise to you, we will soon unveil a Parents\u2019 Bill of Rights. It doesn\u2019t matter your wealth, the color of your skin, once you have a child, it is no longer what you become, it is now what opportunities your children will have,\u201d said McCarthy. \u201cYou have the right to know what is being taught in school.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As for Democrat chances in the midterms, McCarthy has predicted a bigger landslide than most Republicans could even dream of. He believes voters are so enraged at Democrat policies that seats in districts Biden won by as much as 16 points, could become battlegrounds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re a Democrat and President Biden won your seat by 16 points, you\u2019re in a competitive race next year. You are no longer safe, \u201d he noted. \u201cIt\u2019s no longer will the competition of competitive seats be small. It will be more than 70 Democrats that will be competitive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republicans need only five seats to elect McCarthy as House speaker following the midterms. Of the seats Democrats barely held onto in 2020 that Republicans are setting their sights on, several are in Virginia and New Jersey, where Biden won big statewide. However, Democrats underperformed him by over 10 points this year.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/biden-admin-confident-vaccine-mandate-will-be-upheld\/\">Biden Admin.
