Republicans nationwide starting to close midterm polling gap ahead of Alabama’s primary

AUBURN, Ala. (EETV)- Voters in many states across the nation are getting ready to head to the polls to see who will represent them during this year’s highly contested midterm election. The midterm election, which usually has low voter turnout, is traditionally seen as a referendum on the party that controls the White House. Much of the discussion over the past few months has been whether or not Democrats will muster enough support to retake the House of Representatives, a branch of government they have not controlled since 2010. Given the large number of Democratic incumbents up for reelection in traditionally Republican states, many pundits see little chance of Democrats regaining control of the Senate. Recent polls suggest that generic support for Republican candidates has grown.
