let's go to the white house correspondent, mike hannah, at least mid terms. they really are a referendum on they, mike, on biden, on the administration, on the past 2 years. what's america saying? well, every time in the mid terms, yes, it is a referendum on the current administration, whether that administration likes it or not. president biden has been attempting to steer the conversation away from that particular fact as have his fellow democrats, but traditionally and every term. yes, it is a referendum on the administration and what the administration has achieved. now. certainly the biden administration has had an up and down year at the beginning of this year. president biden's opinion ratings were exceedingly low, sinking in the face of increasing prices. increasing gas shortage is increasing prices of gas, soft rentals of accommodation, rising interest rates. and certainly at that particular stage, the republicans were thinking they are going to take it all in these midterm elections. but then there was something of a come back by the administration.

mike hannah, as more from washington d. c on the republicans push to control both houses. there still a massive amount of votes to be countered, but it appears that the republicans are inching towards control of the house of representatives. as to the senate, though that is also a exceedingly tight race. there are 3 key seats outstanding, which is in nevada, arizona, and georgia. if they win those 2 seats, they will get control of the senate. however, if the results are split, then it's going to be down to the wire in georgia where a run off election will be held on december the 6th. why is the voting taking so long? while this is largely due to the massive amount of postal votes that were used in california, for example, where postal voting has been traditionally a preferred method of voting. a sum 60 percent of the votes have only been counted to date. so this just shows the massive effort that has to be put in to get through those postal votes in particular to get to the turtles. but we are still looking at a number of days, a congress be reforms and sits again in d. c

as in mike hannah's in savannah, georgia where republicans are trying to win back senate states was let's hear from gabriel as online pennsylvania. he's been asking vases, want the big issues off of them. many voters say the economy and high gas prices are top issues in the selection. but for karen ends alone attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election means for her. this mid term election is about whether or not democracy survives in america. democracy is now definitely on the ballot. nothing else really matters. the economy won't matter. the price of gas won't matter if we don't have our representative, legal, government and power. nothing else will matter except democracy except democracy. yes. i think it's under threat. absolutely. many voters told us defending democracy was top of their list of issues. they're voting for on tuesday. but why now? it all stems from january 6th, 2021. that's when supporters of donald trump storm the u. s. capital to try to prevent congress from certifying the election results. since then, trump has repeatedly said falsely that it was a rig elect

mike for now thank you very much. indeed mike hannah at the white house or republicans have dominated in florida. rhonda santos has been re elected as governor fueling speculation that he had run for the presidency in 2024 while marco rubio. i secured another time in the senate . the people in this country are going to vote for the people to fight for people like them. they're going to vote for people that are going to fight for people that care about being safe. they don't want drugs coming across our border that don't want illegal immigration running rampant into our country that don't want to have to pay $4.00 for gasoline that don't want to have to pay 22 per cent more than they used to for their groceries. so when you see the results across this country tonight, that's what it's all about. the people who make this country great have been forgotten and have been left behind. and what i'm most proud of is that this community, miami date and the state florida. a diverse state, you find people in the state from everywhere. you find people say from every background. and they enjoy thi

mike, hannah has more from washington. they will have control of the house now that we know that they've got that 20800 seats giving them the majority. but all indications are, is that it's going to be the slimmest of margins. if the democrats win another 5 or 6, or even 6 seats, that will bring them to $217.00, the march will be one, but anywhere between $1.00 and $8.00 is a very slim margin. the reason for this is that the republican party is not a uniform house. there are many elements of it, particularly the extreme right wing, of which there are a large number who may not go aboard with the the, the agenda of the majority of the republicans in the house. they are then able to block any such agenda. so even though the numbers are small relative to the number of the regular republican, so to speak, they would still have the power to block what the republican party as a whole wants to do within the house. now kevin mccarthy today was voted in as leader of the republicans in the house, but he still has to get confirmed on

mike, hannah has more now from washington, dc. a huge sigh of relief and also a lap of victory. we've just heard from president biden in the last few minutes susan prom plan. attending the a z and some of the he's welcome the result for saying that he's looking forward to the next couple of years. and so he might control of the senate is utterly essential for him to push through his legislative agenda. now these 3 wins as well in recent days, pennsylvania, arizona, and nevada, all in swing states, they were all states that republicans that marked 4 possible victories. they will also contended by republican candidates handpick 10 endorsed by former president donald trump. there's a lot of factors coming out of this one say, one thing it's, it's going to undermine his oversized influence within the republican party. and certain he is going to call into question his judgment, even among fellow republicans. but it's also a massive decree for joe biden cementing his stature as lead of the democratic party with the senate controlling the senate. he's actually done better than any 1st

and my colleague mike hannah has put together a background on his race chic. alyssa, ah, african americans are the past, has growing boating block in georgia. now nearly 40 percent of the states electorate. that's an increase of some 7 percent and 2 decades. ah, other minority communities of growing as well. and the shifting demographics had much to do with the traditionally red state, turning blue. ah, and people like pasta andre osborne, a working to build on 20 twenty's gains. having the right type of energy in an election. that's not a presidential election, is incredibly important. so we're trying to encourage people to vote every time, but voting regulations have changed significantly since 2020, stung by their losses. the republicans governing the state passed senate bill 2 o 2, which among other restrictions requires voters to provide a picture id at the polling place. there is certainly of movement to limit or drastically reduce the voice of the people by minimizing the impact of their vote. but the new law also expands early voting, which may have a result, the framers didn't int
