Voters across the United States are deciding who will control Congress in midterm elections that have become closely tied to President Trump. With results still pending, it remains unclear whether the Democratic gains predicted by polls will materialize or Republicans will prevail.
Turnout appears to be high, indicating strong voter interest. The campaign has been divisive, with Democrats blaming Trump and policies including tariffs and the war in Iran for financial pressures facing many Americans.
Republicans have sought to frame the contest as a choice between their party and Democratic opponents, whom they have characterized as far-left radicals, rather than as a referendum on the president. The outcome will determine whether Democrats gain control of one or both chambers of Congress.
