The U.S. midterm elections will be held on November 3, local time, and voters will elect members of Congress. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives are up for election, and 35 out of 100 seats in the Senate are up for election. Both chambers of Congress are currently controlled by Republicans, but their majorities are slim. The election results will determine whether the Republicans or Democrats control Congress and affect President Trump's ability to implement his policy plans. If the Democrats regain control of any house, Trump's bills will be difficult to pass, and various matters during his term may face committee investigations.
