Contrary to what the polls suggested, the mid-term elections in the United States, which took place on Tuesday, November 8, were not the scene of a Republican wave. In the Democratic camp, it is a relief.
In the aftermath of the midterm elections, which took place on Tuesday, November 8 in the United States, the Democrats are relieved. Contrary to what the polls had announced, the Republican wave did not take place. In key states like Maryland and Pennsylvania, Democratic candidates won. Ahead of the final four results, Democrats and Republicans are back-to-back in the Senate with 48 seats each.
Four states have yet to communicate their results. Wisconsin is usually rather Republican while the other three, Georgia, Nevada or Arizona, lean more towards the Democratic side. The ballots were so close that in the state of Georgia, a new vote will be organized. Some Republican voters question the results and start talking about rigging. “We don’t trust the electoral process in America“, confides a voter. Republicans, however, are expected to have a narrow majority in the House of Representatives.
