Americans voted Tuesday in midterm elections determining President Donald Trump's remaining power, with all 435 House seats, 35 Senate seats, and 36 governorships contested among over 210 million eligible voters. Republicans currently control both congressional chambers, and Democrats need to flip seats to win a majority in at least one to limit Trump's influence. Early winners include Democrats Jon Ossoff in Georgia and Sherrod Brown in Ohio, plus Republicans Ashley Moody in Florida and Marsha Blackburn in Tennessee. The staggered poll closings began in Indiana and Kentucky at 6 p.m. Eastern time. Notable results include Indian-origin candidates Suhas Subramanyam and Pia Dandiya winning House races for Democrats, while Xavier Becerra won California's governorship for the party.
