The US midterm elections took place yesterday, November 3, and early results indicate a significant setback for President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Democrats are favored to capture the House of Representatives, while control of the Senate remains much less certain. Importantly, voting has ended in many states, but the final congressional balance has not yet been determined. Main results have already been reported the importance of the result of the country.
North Carolina Democrat Roy Cooper defeats Republican Michael Whatley.
Georgia Democratic incumbent John Ossoff wins re-election.
New Hampshire Democratic incumbent Chris Pappas wins the open Senate seat.
Ashley Moody is winning, but by a surprisingly small margin based on the results so far, the most likely outcome is a Democratic-controlled House and a Republican-controlled Senate, although a Democratic Senate victory remains a possibility. The implications could be significant for US foreign policy, particularly the congressional funding battles, aid to Ukraine, sanctions and the administration's approach to Iran.
