Por qué importa
Historical midterm election trends favor the opposing party, with the president's party usually losing seats.
Trump will not appear on the ballot on November 3, but the stakes for his presidency could hardly be higher. A Democratic house would give the party control of powerful committees and subpoena authority, likely subjecting Trump’s administration to two years of investigations and potentially exposing him to a third impeachment drive. Republicans enter the final stretch with a historically narrow house majority, weak presidential approval ratings and an electorate increasingly unhappy about living costs and the grinding war with Iran. US elections website Decision Desk HQ predicts that the Democratic Party has a 59 per cent chance of winning the house, forecasting a 224-211 majority. The president’s party usually loses ground in midterm elections, and only a handful of seats need to change hands.
