US Midterms: 470 Seats, $12 Billion And One Absent President
All 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats are up for grabs in the US midterm elections, with an estimated $12 billion being spent on campaigns, making them among the most expensive midterms on record. Commentators note the noticeable absence of President Joe Biden from the campaign trail's center stage, as candidates in contested races largely keep their distance from an unpopular incumbent while voters weigh economic concerns.
Why now: The midterm elections are imminent, drawing global attention to spending, control of Congress and Biden's limited campaigning role.
