US House Speaker Mike Johnson has expressed confidence that Republicans will perform strongly in the 2026 midterm elections, dismissing polls that suggest a challenging contest for his party.
Speaking at a campaign rally for Republican Representative Jen Kiggans in Virginia on Monday, Johnson compared the current political climate to the 2024 elections, when Republicans secured control of the White House, Senate and House.
He said control of the House could depend on roughly 21 closely contested seats and urged supporters to turn out.
Minneapolis also reported record early voting for a non-presidential election year, with nearly 69,000 residents casting ballots early, according to CBS News Minnesota.
