Summary

Ahead of the November 3 US midterm elections, polls show Democrats are all but certain to take control of the House of Representatives from Republicans, and Trump's Republicans are scrambling to stop the Democratic wave. A forecasting model reported by The Hindu suggests Democrats could win 230 of the 435 House seats and 18 of the 35 Senate seats being contested. CNA reports that Democrats and Trump held final rallies before the vote, with polls showing Democrats near certain to win the House and a real shot at the currently Republican-held Senate.
