Earlier, Democrats have captured control of both chambers of the US Congress in the 2026 midterm elections, defeating Republicans in a sweeping nationwide victory that dealt a major blow to President Donald Trump's administration and reflected widespread voter dissatisfaction with his leadership.
According to media projections and election results, Democrats secured majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate, making significant gains in traditionally Republican strongholds, including South Carolina, Kansas, Texas, Iowa and Ohio.
The results marked a major shift in the political landscape, with voters expressing frustration over rising living costs, higher fuel prices, Trump's tariffs and the US war against Iran, which began in February.
The Democratic victories will give the opposition greater power to challenge Trump's legislative agenda, investigate his administration and exercise congressional oversight during the final two years of his presidency.
