Election Day: Control Of Congress On The Line. What You Need To Know - November 3
James Longman has the latest on the election, and we may know who controls Congress by tonight. More than 57 million Americans have already voted. Plus, the U.S. is launching new strikes on Iran, with sources saying they've been happening quietly for weeks.
ABC News
What the coverage shows
The coverage mostly converges on practical election-day guidance, with NPR, The Guardian US, The Independent and ABC News all framing the story around when results may be known and how control of Congress could be decided. The New York Times is the only outlet here to foreground election security directly, pairing a headline about CISA and another saying local and state officials are prepared, while Newsweek alone emphasizes Justice Department action on election-related crimes. Democracy Now! and National Review are the least specific, offering only live-election coverage and a special broadcast.
