"whomever has the best chance"? Uh, no. She's illiterate, and illiterate in a particular way, the way of pretentiousness. "Whomism," the habit of spreading whoms around at random to sound like a teacher's pet, is the habit of exactly that, the teacher's pet.
For the record the way normal people talk, "whoever has the best chance," happens to be grammatically correct. "Who" is the subject of the verb "has." The whole thing is a noun-phrase, and is the object of the particle "by" or "to" elsewhere in the sentence.
Why would this "Judge" lady be falling into hoity-toity teacher's pet phoniness? Seems to me it's a fault of everything about Fox: its opinions are bought and paid for by the rich, and are aimed at gullling working people -- and pretension is one of the tools of the con artist, which this woman is.
