ansa.it (Italian) —

Democrats have won control of the House of Representatives, according to projections from Decision Desk HQ, with other major media outlets yet to call the race. Democrats are leading in five key Senate races in Texas, Michigan, South Carolina, Ohio, and Kansas, needing three more seats to secure a majority. Notable wins include Roy Cooper in North Carolina and James Talarico in Texas, the first Democratic Senate victory there since 1988. The New York Times projects Democrats have a 93% chance of winning the House and 78% for the Senate. These midterm elections are seen as a referendum on President Donald Trump, who cannot run again in 2028.
