We know the midterms are very close. The pressure is really on, isn’t it, for the control of the House and the Senate. It’s not compulsory to vote in the U.S. like it is here. So what’s your sense overall? … “The real question is about the Senate. The Republicans currently have a three-seat advantage. They’re certain to lose one of those and probably the Democrats are going to hold on to all of their current seats. All of the other races are within the margin of error from the pollsters,” says Louis DeSipio, UC Irvine professor of Chicano/Latino Studies and political science.
