Trump says "we have indeed made America great again" in midterm pitch

As Americans voted in the midterm elections for Congress, President Donald Trump campaigned and posted online to help Republicans preserve their control of the House and Senate. In a television appearance, he said the election was important and offered a favorable assessment of the country under his leadership. The results determine which party holds Congress and are treated as a signal of how voters view the president. Trump was not on the ballot, but the article says he tried to turn the midterms into a judgment on his second term. Democrats needed net gains of three House seats and four Senate seats to overturn Republican control, which would limit Trump’s ability to pursue his agenda. The Justice Department sent roughly 1,000 observers to all 50 states to check compliance with federal voting law.
