US Congressional Elections: USA Elect Congress Amid Much Anger Over Trump
The outcome of the US congressional election will shape the last two years in office of Donald Trump. Many Americans went to the polls angry about the state of the economy.
US voters have expressed significant dissatisfaction with President Donald Trump as they headed to the polls for the midterm elections. A large survey found that 62% of voters blame Trump's policies for the country's rising prices, while 37% are unhappy with the state of the country and 38% are even angry. The election will determine the balance of power in Congress, with Trump's Republicans currently controlling both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
The Democrats need to gain control of one or both chambers to limit Trump's power, particularly in the Senate where 35 seats are up for election, with 53 currently held by Republicans.
