Just days after the presidential election, Karl Rove’s election night performance on Fox News — during which he refused to accept the network’s decision to call Ohio for President Obama — was mocked in the opening segment of "The Simpsons," according to The Hollywood Reporter.

On election night, Rove spent about half-an-hour insisting there were too many outstanding votes to make declarations in the election, prompting anchor Megyn Kelly to walk to the decision desk to interview the network’s experts, as previously reported.

Here’s the clip:
