More women are standing in House and Senate races than ever before - 260 in total. And it’s female voters that so many of the campaigners had in their sights.

Emily Maitlis is joined by Ana Maria Archila, an activist and co-executive director of the Centre for Popular Democracy, who confronted Senator Jeff Flake in the lift during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings earlier this year and Scottie Nell Hughes, a conservative commentator and presenter of RT America.

Newsnight is the BBC's flagship news and current affairs TV programme - with analysis, debate, exclusives, and robust interviews.
