Midterm elections will be held in the United States on November 8th, 2022. The entire House of Representatives, 35 of the 100 seats in the Senate, and a number of gubernatorial and state elections are up for grabs. Midterm elections are generally considered a referendum on the presidency, and given the narrow Democratic majorities in both the House (12 seats) and the Senate (50+1), the midterms are pivotal for both Democrats and Republicans. We will speak with two strategists from both camps to discuss the campaign issues, the mood of the country, and the chances for both sides, when 240 million eligible voters are called upon to cast their ballots.
