The word "narrowly" appears nowhere in the story you've linked to.
Either way, it's terrible news.
The original story did say narrowly. Creative editing on their part...
Then it must have been closer when the ran they original story. When it became not close, they edited the headline. That is as it should be.
I'm sure you'll be reporting the next egregious distortion from Fox, won't you?
Maybe I'm not completely awake from a nap, but what motivation would Faux have to present the margin as being more narrow than it was? Wouldn't any distortion from them be more likely to portray the result as a "landslide?"
