Charlie Cook, founder of "The Cook Political Report," said on Sunday that it is now "a foregone conclusion" that Democrats will reclaim the House of Representatives in November’s midterm elections; meanwhile, the prospect of Democrats winning control of the Senate appears increasingly "realistic." He expects Democrats to gain approximately 20 seats in the House and four to five seats in the Senate. According to him, Democrats have viable chances of victory in Senate races in Michigan, North Carolina, Alaska, Iowa, New Hampshire, Minnesota, and Kansas.
Political analysts note that President Trump’s approval ratings continue to decline, Democratic enthusiasm is surging in primary contests, and Republican candidates are publicly distancing themselves from Trump amid rising prices linked to the Iran conflict—factors all favoring Democrats. According to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, Trump’s approval rating has dropped to a historic low of 32%. Among Republicans, 72% expressed approval of his performance, down from 82% the previous week. His approval had reached as high as 91% shortly after his second inauguration.
