US ELECTIONS LATEST SITUATION: The eyes of the world are on the midterm elections in the USA! Vote counting continues: Republicans or Democrats?

After the first election results came, US President Trump said in a statement on the social media platform Truth Social: "My name was not on the ballot paper, and if there had been, we would have won a landslide victory! Thank you for your interest in this issue."

'I AM READY TO ACCEPT'

Trump evaluated the election results in his statement to the New York Times (NYT) regarding the Congressional midterm elections.

Regarding the Democratic-led election, Trump said he was "absolutely prepared to accept these results" and cooperate with the Democrats.

Trump commented, "I look forward to working with them. We will probably find a solution to work together."

Democrats will take control of the US House of Representatives from Republicans, according to predictions made by US media on Tuesday.

All 435 seats in the House of Representatives will be re-voted in the midterm elections, and a party needs 218 seats to gain a majority.

7 CHAIRS WERE SEIZED

According to election results from the Associated Press (AP), Democrats have captured seven seats held by Republicans so far. These gains occurred in Kentucky's 6th District, North Carolina's 11th District, New Jersey's 7th District, Ohio's 15th District, and Pennsylvania's 7th, 8th, and 10th districts.

In Ohio, Democrat Don Leonard was elected in the 15th district. In Pennsylvania, Democrats Paige Cognetti and Janelle Stelson won in the 8th and 10th districts, respectively. Republican Representative Mike Johnson was re-elected in Louisiana's 4th District.

VOTE COUNTING CONTINUES

This planned takeover would give Democrats control of the lower house of Congress and give the party more power to shape the legislative agenda and oversee the Republican administration in the final two years of President Donald Trump's term. Vote counting continues in elections across the country.

Approximately 60 million voters in the United States went to the polls for governorships and other local positions in their states, as well as for all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 of 100 seats in the Senate.

In the US electoral system, all members of the 435-seat House of Representatives go to the polls every two years, once in the general election in which the US president is elected and the other in the midterm elections.

In the 100-member Senate wing of Congress, one-third of the senators are elected for a 6-year term and are renewed every two years.
