Following a segment that aired during Sunday night’s NBC Nightly News on President Obama’s unpopularity ahead of the midterm elections, the evening news program ran two more midterm election segments on Tuesday. Both segments, however, were not without liberal bias, as one segment promoted the “close” Kentucky Senate race and the other discussed three Senate races to watch that present “big hurdles” for a Republican Senate majority.

The first segment, which was done by NBC News senior White House correspondent Chris Jansing, profiled the Senate race in Kentucky between the Republican leader in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, and Democrat Alison Lundergan-Grimes. Immediately following that, Williams turned to NBC News political director and moderator of Meet the Press Chuck Todd for three Senate races to watch with the elections three weeks from Tuesday.
