Democrats will dilute the majority of Congress in American votes

  • On November 8, the entire House of Representatives and a third of the Senate will be elected in the midterm elections of the United States. Polls almost assume that Democrats will lose the majority in the lower chamber and Republicans will get it; the result in the upper chamber is in doubt. These elections will condition the mandate of President Joe Bide.

The US Congress is divided into two parts: the House of Representatives – the Upper House – and the Senate – the Lower House. That is what the Americans will vote for in the midterm elections on 8 November: 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 34 seats in the Senate, one third of the body. They will also elect in these votes governors of 36 states.

Whatever the outcome, Democratic President Joe Bide will not go from the White House, which ends his mandate in 2024, but the new configuration of Congress will be decisive for the coming years. It will be the antecedent of the presidential elections and the location of Joe Bide and Donald Trump will be discovered. Surveys have made it clear that Bidene has lost recognition as his mandate progresses.

According to the surveys, it is almost certain that Democrats lose the majority of the House of Representatives. Today, Democrats have 220 seats and the 212 Republicans, who need 218 to be a majority. Therefore, the focus is installed in the Senate, because the doubt is greater. So far they are tied with 50 votes, but in the draws the democrats have the vote of Vice-President Kamala Harris to put the result in their favour. As in the last elections, Pennsylvania will be a decisive outcome for the entire United States.

Successful with the campaign

In the campaign of recent months, Republicans have put their weight on economic issues, including inflation. They have also talked about the “problem of migration” and “security”, as usual. Democrats, for their part, have mainly addressed women, asking for their vote to guarantee the right to abortion.

In recent days, the speech has changed a little and economic issues have been introduced. However, experts say that they have not succeeded in influencing citizenship, but in stressing the need to “defend the right to abortion,” because most Americans are interested in explaining economic measures.
