US Midterms Result in Divided Government with Democratic Senate
Following the US midterm elections, from January Washington will have two centers of authority: a Republican White House and a Democratic-controlled Congress. Democrats gained Senate control, enabling them to block federal appointments and challenge Supreme Court nominations. They will also oversee investigations and influence government funding negotiations. However, President Trump retains veto power, complicating legislative progress and increasing the potential for political standoffs.
