The U.S. midterm elections got underway amid a contest between Republicans and Democrats for control of Congress. The vote is seen as a referendum on President Donald Trump’s second term. Republicans are under pressure over the rising cost of living, fuel prices, the fallout from the Iran war, and tariffs. The elections cover all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 seats in the Senate. A party needs 218 House seats and 51 Senate seats to secure a majority. Estimates from Decision Desk HQ suggest Democrats could win 241 House seats, compared with 194 for Republicans, and 52 Senate seats, compared with 48. More than 57 million people voted early, compared with about 46 million in the 2022 election. If Republicans lose their majority in either chamber, Democrats would have greater power to block Trump’s legislation and launch investigations into his administration.
