The Pope could have made history by voting in the American midterm elections

Pope Leo XIV voted by mail in the U.S. midterm elections, marking a historic participation for a pope in a democratic election. The Vatican emphasized the importance of civic engagement. Leo XIV, a U.S. citizen, has consistently exercised his voting rights, even while serving abroad. His relationship with Donald Trump has been complex, with recent tensions easing. The upcoming elections are crucial for the Republican majority in Congress, with polls indicating low support for Trump due to rising living costs. Analysts predict potential Democratic gains in the House and possibly the Senate.
