2 November 2022 | An election like no other

America feels more divided than ever. Inflation is skyrocketing, the economy is in tatters, abortion is once again on the agenda, and there's a looming threat to its entire democratic system on the horizon. It's all set to come to a head next week when Americans go to the polls to vote in the midterm elections, which will effectively be a referendum on Joe Biden's presidency so far. Can the Democrats keep control of Congress? Or will the Republicans capture the House or the Senate and put an end to any major legislation that Joe Biden may try to pass? Senior Fellow at Sydney University's United States Studies Centre Bruce Wolpe joins James Law for a special edition of Flash Drive. We discuss the issues that could decide the election, the state of play, and what this could mean for 2024 and the potential return of Donald Trump.
