WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump and his Republican Party have suffered a major setback in the U.S. midterm elections. The Democratic Party has taken control of the U.S. House of Representatives, according to claims by American media decision desks.
According to U.S. media, Democrats have won 46 Senate seats, while Republicans have secured 36.
In the 218-seat House of Representatives, early results show Democrats leading in 118 seats and Republicans winning 66. Reports say Democrats have gained control of the House.
In gubernatorial elections, Democrats have won 15 seats, while Republicans have secured 10.
In Michigan, Muslim Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed holds a clear lead. He has received 55.2 percent of the vote, while Republican candidate Rogers has received 42.2 percent.
Analysts say the results reflect a clear voter rebuke of President Trump’s policies and the Republican-controlled Congress.
