US midterm polls hold considerable significance as the winner would dominate the 435-seat US House of Representatives and 35 vacant US Senate seats.

US’s former President Donald Trump said that he would be making a ‘very big announcement’ on November 15 by the time the midterm poll results would get apparent. Trump’s statement came after Joe Biden’s closing remark ahead of the midterm polls on Tuesday. Biden warned that Republicans winning the election could dilute the country’s democratic institutions.

The winner of US midterm polls would dominate the 435-seat US House of Representatives and 35 vacant US Senate seats. Republicans have slammed the Biden administration over soaring prices and crime.

Biden's unpopularity has made him an unwelcome guest in the most competitive races. On Monday, he spoke in reliably Democratic Maryland, where the Democratic gubernatorial nominee, Wes Moore, is widely expected to win back the Republican-held governorship, reported Reuters.
