(Central News Agency, Washington, 1st Comprehensive Foreign News Report) The U.S. midterm elections are about to take place in two days, and the results will determine control of Congress. U.S. President Trump returned to the campaign stage today and went to Iowa and Kansas to campaign.

Reuters reported that Iowa and Kansas are both located in the Farm Belt of the United States and tend to support the Republican Party, and both Republican senators are facing battles to defend their seats.

Trump won Iowa by double digits in 2024, but polls show that Democratic candidates have been on par with or even ahead of Republican candidates in many elections in the state.

According to a Reuters/Ipsos poll, Trump's policy satisfaction among rural voters fell to a new low of 45% in October.

Kansas has not elected a Democratic senator since 1932, and this election was unexpectedly tight.

The United States will hold midterm elections on November 3, in which 35 seats in the Senate and all 435 seats in the House of Representatives will be re-elected. The Republican Party currently holds a majority of 53 to 47 seats in the Senate, and also holds a slight advantage in the House of Representatives.
