Former Republican presidential candidate, senator and CNN political analyst Rick Santorum has joined conservative cable channel Newsmax as senior political analyst and will hit the ground analyzing Tuesday (Nov. 2) with the network‘s coverage of a key election.
The Virginia governor's race between Republican Glenn Youngkin and Democrat Terry McAuliffe is razor-thin and considered something of a referendum on the continuing impact of former President Donald Trump, who endorsed Youngkin. There is also a key governor's race in New Jersey.
