Jason Opal, Professor, Department of History and Classical Studies, 缅北强奸
"These mid-term elections are the last best chance for the majority of Americans who do not support Mr. Trump to slow down his consolidation of power. In lieu of a clear and resounding defeat, Mr. Trump will move quickly to dismantle the remains of Obamacare before moving into the core agreements of the 20th century, including Social Security and Medicare. In addition, this election will be the biggest test in generations of voting rights and restrictions in the US."

"This election will be especially interesting in terms of the importance that voters will end up giving to the Trump administration's behaviour and actions earlier this fall, and whether this will differ from the widespread dissatisfaction that characterized the previous months."

Barry Eidlin, Professor, Department of Sociology, 缅北强奸
鈥淎s many observers have noted, this election will be a referendum on the Trump presidency, even if the president himself is not on the ballot. But it will also be a referendum on how best to respond to the Trump presidency. So far, the Democrats have been split, with some candidates positioning themselves as the moderate, centrist 鈥渧oice of reason,鈥� while others have responded by moving to the left, voicing a more full-throated, robust progressive vision. Although polling and recent social mobilizations in so-called 鈥渞ed states鈥� suggest that Republican congressional majorities are far from safe, it is not at all clear that the 鈥淏lue Wave鈥� for which Democrats are hoping is materializing. Regardless of the outcome, we can expect significant political shifts in the election鈥檚 aftermath.鈥濃�擝arry Eidlin
