Late-night comedians tried their hand at live election-night coverage Tuesday during the 2022 U.S. midterm elections, poking fun at numerous Republican candidates and election deniers across the nationwide ballots and the desperation of the Democratic Party to maintain control of Congress.
'The Late Show'
"The Late Show's" Stephen Colbert broadcast his CBS show live again from the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York to bring his viewers "up-to-the-minute election results and up-to-the-minute election denials." The CBS host, who often broadcasts live on election night, invited a few special guests too: results analyst "Steve Clucknacki" and "John 'Chicken a la' King" — the avian version of MSNBC's numbers whiz Steve Kornacki and CNN's John King.
