These elections, held on the first Tuesday of an even-numbered, non-leap year, can shift the balance of power. In 2022, 66 seats in the U.S. Senate and 435 seats in the House of Representatives are up for election. The results will determine the makeup of the 118th U.S. Congress, which begins work in January 2023. Recent polls suggest that voters may reduce Republican influence in the midterm elections.",
