US mid-term elections: Is Trump on come-back trail

Americans are heading to the polls tomorrow to vote in the US midterm elections, which could alter the balance of power in Washington and state capitals across the nation.

US President Joe Biden is not on the ballot but the outcome of the elections will show how popular he is or not. Latest surveys show his popularity the lowest on record for any president facing his first mid-term election.

Currently with less than 24 hours to go, polls are indicting that his Democratic party look set to lose control of the Senate and the House of Representatives.

Should that happen it could be a powerful indicator of how the 2024 elections might pan out and with former president Donald Trump likely to declare his intention to run for office again, America might need to brace itself for a stormy 24 months.
