The economic impact of the Iran war, inflation and President Donald Trump's popularity are affecting the election campaign
Ahead of the mid-term elections in the United States on November 3, 10 Senate seats have become the center of important competitions.
According to an analysis by the American broadcaster CNN, the economic impact of the Iran war, inflation and President Donald Trump's popularity are affecting the election campaign.
The candidates of the opposition Democratic party seem to be gaining an advantage over the candidates of the ruling Republican party supported by Trump.
In North Carolina, Democratic candidate Roy Cooper is in a better position than his opponent Michael Whatley, while in Ohio there is a tight competition between former Senator Sherrod Brown and Jon Husted. In Alaska, the seats of Mary Peltola and Dan Sullivan are also in the center of attention.
In Maine, Republican Senator Susan Collins faces a tough challenge from Democrat Troy Jackson. The race between James Tallarico and Ken Paxton in Texas is also close, while all eyes are on the race between Abdul Sayeed and Mike Rogers in Michigan.
Josh Torik and Ashley Hanson in Iowa, Adam Hamilton and Roger Marshall in Kansas, Chris Pappas and John Sununu in New Hampshire, while Jon Ossoff and Mike Collins in Georgia are the main candidates.
CNN has also counted Nebraska, South Carolina, Minnesota and Mississippi as states where unexpected results may come out. These elections will determine which party gains the upper house of Congress.
According to the report, both parties have been spending more than $300 million in total on election advertising in these 10 seats in the last two weeks, and the balance seems to be heavy in favor of the Democrats.
CNN also clarified in its report that its classification is based on the latest election evaluations and political conditions and the situation may change before the vote.
