On Tuesday, Donald Trump said Republicans would have a "great night," and Joe Biden said Democrats would have a "tough" time in the US midterm elections, which will reshape Washington and set the stage for the 2024 presidential election.
A huge number of Americans ran to the surveys on Tuesday to cast a ballot in the midterms, which will figure out which ideological group controls Congress for the following two years and act as a mandate on Biden's administration up to this point.
The final polling averages indicate that Republicans will be able to regain control of the lower chamber of Congress by winning enough seats in the House of Representatives to stymie Biden's agenda and launch investigations into his administration.
However, the outcome of a few races, particularly those in Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Georgia that were close going into the final stretch of the campaign, will determine the Senate's power balance.
By a small margin, Democrats currently hold control of both chambers of Congress.Biden told reporters at the White House late on Monday that he remained "optimistic" heading into election day, and then he added:But I always have hope."
Biden responded, "Yes," when asked if Democrats could retain control of the House.I think it will be hard, but I think we can do it.We will win the Senate, but I think the House will be harder for us.
Trump, on the other hand, spoke to reporters on Tuesday morning outside his polling place in Palm Beach, Florida, and stated:It's exciting, and I think we'll have a fantastic night.
A rematch of the 2020 vote could occur if Biden seeks a second term, as Trump has heavily hinted that he wants to run for president in two years.At a rally in Ohio on Monday night, the former president promised his supporters that he would make a "very big announcement" on November 15.Biden hasn't officially said that he wants to run for president again.
More than 41 million Americans had already voted early, either in person or via mail, as of Monday afternoon, indicating a high turnout that may exceed the 122 million who cast ballots in the 2018 midterm el
