Democrats, Trump hold final rallies before midterm elections

Democrat and Republican leaders will deliver final speeches to US voters on Monday ahead of the midterm elections, aiming to sway public opinion ahead of what could be a significant political shift. Trump made his closing remarks at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, a site that has become associated with his controversial plans to revitalize the US capital.

Democrats, on the other hand, organized a series of final rallies, featuring prominent candidates such as James Talarico in Texas and Adam Hamilton in Kansas. Recent polls indicate that Democrats are likely to gain control of the House of Representatives and have a strong chance of winning several Senate seats. This outcome would grant Democrats the power to influence the federal budget and key committees, enabling them to investigate alleged corruption and other contentious issues linked to Trump.

Even securing a majority in the House alone would grant Democrats control over the budget and influential committees. Despite Democrats' optimism, the party remains cautious about predicting a win, as internal divisions and late developments continue to shape the political landscape.
