The Nov. 8 midterm election will decide whether Democrats retain control of both chambers of Congress, or Republicans win power in either—or both. Polls suggest the Senate contest in Ohio pitting Democrat Tim Ryan against Republican J.D. Vance is within the margin of error. Many observers believe the results of this election will shape the second half of President Joe Biden's term and have a major impact on the state and national level for years to come.
