Midterm 2026

The US midterm election just happened. As a non-citizen who doesn't get to vote, the only thing I can do is to look at the results and see how Americans are feeling about them.

As you know, the presidential election happens every 4 years. The Midterm happens in the in between years, two years after the presidential election. This is where all the House and about one third of Sthe enate get reelected. At the same time, at the state level, many states have gubernatorial elections.

Basically, it was all Democrats winning everywhere this time.

We never talk about politics but based on all the values that you shared with me over time, I think you are somewhere in the middle. I think I'm pretty similar in terms of where I stand.

At this point, what I care about most is whether this country is pro-business which roughly translates to pro-tech. I think that is the only way that this country will maintain its power and dominance, which is important to me as someone who decided to spend the rest of their life in this country.

I wonder how you would feel about this if you were here.
