On November 3, local time, the US held a midterm election vote. Against the backdrop of high inflation and rising cost of living, the second term of the Trump administration ushered in a serious “midterm exam.” In this midterm election, the Republican Party and the Democratic Party will compete for all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the Senate. Voters will also elect local public officials such as governors from 36 states and state legislators from some states. Before this midterm election, the Republican Party controlled both houses of Congress. According to the number of seats in the National Assembly before the election, the Democratic Party can seize control of the House of Representatives by adding 3 seats. On the Senate side, competition between the two parties is quite intense in seven states, including Maine, Texas, and Michigan. The Democratic Party needs 4 additional seats to gain a 51-seat majority advantage.
