Las ‘midterms’ 2026, en vivo| Estados Unidos asimila el impacto de la ola azul que arrebató el Congreso a los republicanos y repudió las políticas de Trump

In a historic midterm election, the Democrats wrested control of Congress from the Republicans, marking a significant repudiation of President Donald Trump's policies, particularly those that have weighed heavily on the wallets of American citizens. Surveys had previously indicated a favorable outlook for the opposition in the final stretch of the midterms.

However, the election night revealed surprising twists even in Republican strongholds that had transitioned hands for the first time in decades, such as South Carolina, Kansas, and Texas. In Texas, Democrat Gina Hinojosa unseated Greg Abbott and will become the first Hispanic woman to lead the border state. Amidst the upheaval and following calls to Republican voters to cast their ballots as though Trump were on the ballot, Trump expressed willingness to accept the results and work alongside Democrats.
