In response to the soaring fuel costs triggered by the military operations against Iran by the United States and Israel, countermeasures against rising prices have become the biggest issue.

At a polling station in Detroit, Michigan, in the Midwest, voices of dissatisfaction with President Trump could be heard. Brenda Hampton, 74, who voted for Democrat El-Sayed in the Senate race, lamented, ``Inflation is terrible.I feel like food prices have almost doubled.''

In southern Texas, Republican Attorney General Paxton and Democratic state Rep. Talarico are in a close race for the U.S. Senate. A public servant in his 60s who visited a polling place in Austin said, ``I came to vote for Mr. Talarico. Mr. Paxton has committed numerous frauds.''

In Arlington, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C., a 26-year-old accountant who voted for the Democratic candidate said, ``I focused on the use of tax money and the issue of high prices. I can't support Mr. Trump.''
