Americans voted on Tuesday in midterm elections that could change control of Congress, according to Africanews, IOL, France 24 and RFI English.

IOL reported that Democrats were poised to seize the House and challenge for the Senate. Vanguard reported that Democrats need three House gains and a net four Senate seats to take both chambers.
