Midterms, in maps and charts: What’s at stake this Tuesday and where Trump stands
On November 3, U.S. midterm elections will determine control of Congress, with Democrats poised to gain ground against Trump's Republicans. Polls indicate low approval for Trump, suggesting Democrats may win both the House and Senate. The House is particularly competitive, with Democrats needing to gain just four seats to take control. In the Senate, Democrats require a net gain of four seats, with key races in Trump-won states. Additionally, 36 states will elect governors, impacting local policies. The current balance shows Republicans holding a slight edge in governorships, but midterms historically favor the opposition party.
