[Trump Faces a Tough Midterm Exam] On November 3rd local time, the United States held its midterm elections. Against the backdrop of high inflation and rising living costs, the Trump administration's second term faces a tough "midterm exam." In this midterm election, Republicans and Democrats will compete for all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the Senate. Voters will also elect governors in 36 states, as well as state legislators and other local officials. Before this midterm election, Republicans controlled both the House and Senate. Based on the pre-election seats, the Democrats need three more seats to gain control of the House. In the Senate, the competition is fierce in seven states, including Maine, Texas, and Michigan. The Democrats need four more seats to secure a majority of 51 seats. (CCTV International News)
