US may have 'more divided govt' after midterms

LESS than four weeks to go before American voters find out whether they will have a more divided government and Congress amid growing fears of a recession, protests over abortion rights and ever-escalating polarized politics, Chinese observers said.

They said United States President Joe Biden, as the "biggest negative equity" of the Democratic Party, has dragged down drastically the favorable views of the Democrats. And even though the gap between the two parties has tightened in recent weeks, the Democrats will most likely lose the House in the midterm elections, the observers added.
