Voters from across the country go to the polls for mid-term electionsGetty Images

Two years after the beginning of the first billionaire president's term, voters will have the opportunity to give their opinion on the direction the country is taking today, on election day. Although it is not listed on the ballot, a number of votes have been converted into a referendum on President Trump and on the question of whether the Democratic Party should control it by taking one. congressional chambers or both.

In addition, at the state level, there are a number of tight races for the governor. As states increasingly set the tone for issues such as marijuana and climate change, controlling state governments is also becoming a top priority – and also attracts a lot of money from billionaire donors.

The big numbers right now:

Republicans have until now 47 Senate seats and Democrats have 38 with 13 seats still to call.
Republicans have so far lost ten seats in the House, with 111 called seats for the GOP and 95 for the Democrats.
Republicans have won 9 governorates and democrats won 5, with 22 races to come.

Race in the House of Representatives

Republicans currently occupy 235 seats in the House of Representatives. The Democrats have 193 and 7 are currently vacant. The polls have always given Democrats a lead in the generic poll of this electoral cycle, and at the halfway point, it is common for the opposition party in the White House to get seats. The question for Republicans is whether they can limit those gains to less than 25 seats, which is all the Democrats need to take control of the House.

Race in the Senate

The Republican party currently has a slim majority in the Senate of 51 senators. But the structure of this election puts the chances of the GOP enormously. Of the 35 seats to be filled, only 9 are currently occupied by Republicans, which puts the Democrats in defense in 26 races – 10 of which are in states where Trump won in 2016 – and still forces them to win 2 more seats . & nbsp;

That said, the polls give the Democrats hope to be able to count on two pickups. Some polls report some Republican victories, and still others are pure clappers. We may not know which party controls the Senate before the end of the week.

Georgia is another breed of governor that attracts a lot of attention. What was thought earlier this year as a safe bet for the GOP candidate, Secretary of State Brian Kemp, has turned into a close race between him and Stacey Abrams, who was formerly leader of the minority in the House of Representatives of Georgia.
