Democrats stem Republican tide
10 Nov 2022
There is as yet no clarity about the exact wins and losses for each side in the United States mid-term elections, where the whole of the lower house of the Congress, the House of Representatives, is re-elected, and one-third of the upper house or the Senate, and dozen or more state governorships. It looks like that the Republicans will have an edge in the House of Representatives, and the majority in the Senate could remain with the Democrats. But there is enough and more clarity about the major trends in these elections. The Democrats were not routed as was expected because of high inflation and the tottering economy.
