VOTE! Upcoming General Election

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at JHU chapter.

Now that you read our previous article on Navigating Voter Registration, it’s time to go out and vote!

 

As most of you may know, on November 6th, 2018 US Congressional Elections will take place. This means that 35 Senate seats and 435 House seats will be up for election. Currently, the Republican Party holds 51 seats in the Senate, and the Democratic Party holds 47, with the remaining two held by independents.

However, in the House of Representatives, the gap is wider given that Republicans hold 236 seats and the Democrats 193.

Could this election’s outcome have a grave impact on President Donald Trump’s remaining years in office? Probably!
