US Election Campaigns
Latest in US Election Campaigns· Nov 11
Democrats won control of Congress in midterm elections, shifting legislative power after two years of Republican dominance. The party gains the ability to block Republican initiatives and advance its own agenda on taxes, healthcare, and judicial appointments. Control of the House and Senate also positions Democrats to investigate Republican-led administrations and set the terms for any 2028 presidential race.
Campaign activities, candidate strategies, and electoral dynamics in US presidential and midterm elections.
