Millions of voters across the United States are going to the polls in midterm elections some are calling the most important in decades.
With the country deeply divided, there is much to decide. Will voters make this a referendum on Donald Trump’s performance as U.S. president over the last two years?
Will Democrats win back control of either house of Congress? And, what will the outcome mean for major U.S. policy on issues like trade and immigration?
