Democrats win big after Trump alienates voters
Donald Trump's rhetoric and policy failures contributed to significant losses for Republicans in congressional elections, even as Democrats secured victories across several key states.
What the coverage shows
The three outlets converge on the midterm vote’s House and Senate contests, but they frame the item differently. CBS News presents it as a guide to the races to watch as voting wraps, while The Guardian US turns it into live results coverage across Senate, House and governor races in all 50 states. The Los Angeles Times is the only outlet here to foreground early returns and Democratic inroads, especially in Senate races, and notes that the campaign had produced more competitive red-state contests than expected.
