On 8 November 2022, the USA holds its midterm elections. The midterms not only mark the halfway point of Joe Biden's presidency but are also regarded as a seismograph of the political climate in the USA. What is moving people in the United States in this phase of nervous pause? What do the midterms mean for the 2024 U.S. presidential election, and how does the capital, Washington, D.C., experience this vote? Dr. Bendix Huegelmann is on the ground in Washington, D.C. and reports directly from the midterm elections via video link.
