Issued on:
Although the outcome of the battle for control of the US Congress is still uncertain three days after the midterm elections, the Republican vision of a “red wave” ensuring a majority in both chambers is dissipating. President Joe Biden’s Democratic Party has so far held firm in both the House of Representatives and the Senate as the results continue to trickle in.
Despite, or perhaps because of, the shadow of Donald Trump hanging over the November 8 midterm elections, the Democrats performed better than anticipated in races across the country. The results are still uncertain, but if the Republicans have a slight lead in the House of Representatives, the Democrats could still retain the Senate. In Florida, Republican Governor Ron DeSantis was re-elected by a wide margin, confirming his status as a potential Republican candidate for the next presidential election in 2024.
