As the 2026 U.S. midterm elections approach, Democrats maintain a consistent lead in the polls, according to a report by France 24 on October 17.
Despite this lead, Republicans are clinging to the margin of error in the polls, hoping it might allow them to keep the Senate majority. This strategy is especially crucial as the race remains tight in several key states.
Republicans can also count on financial backing from Elon Musk, identified as the largest donor in these elections. He is focusing his efforts on the state of Texas, considered a major battleground for Senate control.
