The midterm elections in the USA are underway. The stakes are control of Congress.

Current polls indicate a strong lead for the Democratic Party, likely allowing them to gain control of the House of Representatives. The Senate majority remains uncertain, hinging on elections in seven states. A recent Reuters survey shows Democrats leading Republicans by eight percentage points nationally, with only 32% of Americans satisfied with Donald Trump. Many independent voters view their vote as a rejection of Trump's actions. Reports suggest that Trump is increasingly anxious about the potential losses in the midterm elections, which could be disastrous for the Republican Party. Voting continues until Thursday morning, with results expected soon after.
