The sweep ends unified GOP control of Washington in January and gives Democrats greater power over legislation, spending and investigations. Voter Backlash: High gas and living costs, tariffs and the Iran war helped drive the shift, with many voters treating the election as a verdict on President Trump. Disaster Aid: A new analysis found Trump approved nearly 90% of major disaster requests from states with all-Republican leadership, compared with 23% from all-Democratic states, raising concerns about unequal federal support. Southwest Floods: Repeated storms left communities in Colorado and elsewhere assessing damage, with homes and roads hit, evacuations reported and two people found dead. Polling Misses: Final polling averages underestimated Democratic support in several key races, including major contests for Senate and governor, though vote counts remain incomplete in some states.
