CBS News reported that Beto O'Rourke, a former Democratic Senate candidate for Texas, reacted to Democratic midterm election wins in an interview with the network. According to the CBS News video segment, O'Rourke joined the network to discuss what it described as sweeping Democratic wins in last week's midterm elections. The segment's headline quotes him as saying the result was "Long time in the making."

The CBS News summary does not identify the specific races or offices involved in the wins, and it does not give vote totals. It also does not describe what O'Rourke said beyond the headline quote. The headline frames his reaction as relating to Texas, but the summary does not explain the connection in more detail.

This report relies on the CBS News title and summary only. The full segment was not available for this report, so further details about the comments and the elections they addressed could not be confirmed.
