US Midterms: Why Trump Lost So Badly | Vantage on Firstpost

Listen to this article

The 2026 US Midterms have led to a major Democratic win. The Democratic Party has won the House of Representatives and the Senate in a major setback for US President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Women voted in large numbers in favour of the Democratic Party. Meanwhile, the elections saw historic firsts. The Democrats have now flipped even historic Republican strongholds including Kansas, Texas, Ohio, Iowa, South Carolina and have also won an additional two dozen seats in the House of Representatives. Meanwhile, the major concerns for most American voters going into the polls were the US Economy, the State of Democracy, Immigration, Healthcare, Foreign Policy and Crime. The Iran war and anti-Indian rhetoric was also a major concern at the Midterms. Hem Kaur Saroya tells you more on Vantage on Firstpost.
