Republicans Face Headwinds as US Midterms Approach on November 3

Recent polling suggests Republicans could struggle in the November 3 midterm elections, driven largely by voter dissatisfaction. The contest is being seen as a key measure of how the government is handling issues such as the economy and immigration. Both House and Senate races are closely fought, so the outcomes remain uncertain. Democrats hope to capitalize on the public discontent to gain ground. The result will be widely read as a test of the current administration's performance.
