The US midterm elections were held on the 3rd, and the Republican Party and the Democratic Party competed fiercely. A number of public opinion polls show that voters are generally dissatisfied with the current state of affairs in the US, and the cost of living is the most important factor in determining their choices. According to a poll released by the Associated Press on the 3rd, voters are eager to change the status quo. About three-quarters of voters are “angry” or “dissatisfied” with the country's current development. About six adults believe that the main reason prices are higher than usual is “Trump's policies” rather than “factors that Trump cannot control.” According to a public opinion survey released by CNN on the 3rd, 75% of voters think the financial situation is poor, and about 90% say the cost of living is the “key” or main factor in voting choices. About two-thirds of voters believe that US President Trump has worsened the country's economic situation. The survey was conducted from October 19 to November 3. Reuters and Ipsos Group surveyed 1,765 adults across the US from October 29 to November 2. The results showed that approximately 48% of registered voters viewed the cost of living as the most important factor in their choices, 26% put democratic norms first, and 13% gave priority to immigration issues. About 49% of Americans think their financial situation has deteriorated since Trump re-entered the White House in January 2025; 13% think there has been an improvement, and 37% say there has been no change. Reuters reports that the support of Latino voters helped Trump win the November 2024 presidential election. According to the latest poll, 54% of Latino respondents believe that family finances are under pressure, and only 10% say the situation has improved. Trump called on supporters to treat this vote as personal support for him to boost the Republican Party election. However, according to a poll by Reuters and Ipsos Group, 48% of respondents who plan to vote or have completed their votes say they want to use their own votes against Trump, and 25% say they want to vote for him. Another 25% said that Trump was not a factor in their vote.
