The White House has said it hopes to cooperate with whichever side prevails in the US midterm elections, according to Sky News Arabia. The broadcaster's roundup of the latest developments, published on Sunday, places the administration's stance alongside broader questions about who will control Congress once the votes are counted.
Coverage cited by Sky News Arabia also points to the possibility that Republicans could lose their majority. Saudi outlet Sabq is reported to have described preparations by President Trump to govern without relying on Congress, framing this as a contingency should his party fall short. The same summary notes discussion of four scenarios that could reshape the balance of power in Washington after the congressional elections, as raised by Asharq Al-Awsat.
Another thread in the coverage, from Al Jazeera, examines whether Democrats can win over Arab American voters, describing a sense of abandonment linked to Trump. The outlet's framing suggests this group's support is being actively courted in the current contest.
Taken together, the reports reflect a race whose outcome remains unsettled, with attention split between the fight for legislative majorities and the administration's plans for governing regardless of the result.
What to watch next: final seat tallies in both chambers, and whether the White House's stated willingness to cooperate is matched by concrete moves once the new Congress takes shape.
