The ladies watch the election results in the upcoming episode of "The Real Housewives of New York" season 9.

Titled "The Politics of Friendship," next week's episode will see Carole Radziwill and her mother go canvassing in Pennsylvania as the presidential election nears its end. Later, Carole and her friends gather at a party as they watch the results come in. Meanwhile, Sonja Morgan reveals that she feels conflicted between the two special men in her life: Rocco Ancarola and the mystery man she calls "Frenchie." Dorinda Medley attempts to throw a surprise party for Ramona Singer, but the latter unknowingly throws a wrench in the former's plans.

Since she joined the series in season 3, Sonja has always been dubbed as the "sexy single one" in the group. Most of the ladies were married at the time. Now that the majority of the housewives are back to being single, Sonja told Entertainment Tonight she is ready to settle down.

"I made a list for myself, and my list was for people I could spend the rest of my life with and settle down," she revealed. "Now that things are settled down for myself."

Sonja is currently head over heels with a new mystery man known as "Frenchie." The 39-year-old reality star shared that her new beau is a French hotelier who is 14 years younger than her. Although he has most of the traits Sonja is looking for in a man, she said it would have been better if he already had kids.

"Frenchie" splits his time between New York City and France, so he could still bond with Sonja. She went on to share that he had helped her move on from her so-called "friend with benefits" Thomas D'Agostino (who recently married Sonja's co-star Luann de Lesseps).

"The Real Housewives of New York" season 9 airs every Wednesday at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo.
