There were no surprises. In the United States, the Democrats captured both houses of Congress, moreover, the results even exceeded the predictions. In the Senate, the Democratic Party received 54 seats, which is three more than it needed to create a majority. In the House of Representatives, the Democrats have 229 seats, and this is also a safe majority. Some Republicans are already openly blaming Donald Trump for their defeat. The success of the Democratic Party in these midterm elections is reflected in the numbers: in traditionally "red" Kansas, a Democrat became a senator for the first time in 94 years, in South Carolina for the first time in 28 years. And Texas has its first Democratic governor since 1990. The senator now also names "blue", the first since 1998. Houston, Texas resident Sergei Pokrovsky says it's simply a "catastrophe" as the country's collapse reaches its peak. He calls what Democrats now represent in conservative-dominant Texas "the point of no return." "Until the last moment, there was some illusion that common sense would prevail and that such a failure would not happen, but nevertheless it happened," he says. In addition, Democrats have also become judges in several states. Fedor Kozlov, managing partner of the law firm of Fedor Kozlov & Co., a resident of Chicago, Illinois, says that there will be a big confrontation between President Trump and the elected representatives of the new Congress. Even a little chaos is expected, but there is hope that it will not happen. The first consequences of the election have already been felt by shares of American IT companies, reports Reuters. Many of the winning Democrats are promoting a moratorium on the construction of data centers, with which dissatisfaction has been growing in the United States for several months, mainly because of rising service prices. We remind you that the new composition of the American Congress will start working on January 3, so until that date, the legislative power remains in the hands of Donald Trump and the Republican Party.
