Americans started voting Tuesday in critical midterm elections that mark the first major voter test of Donald Trump's presidency, with control of Congress at stake.
Although not on the ballot, Trump made himself the focus of the entire contest, jetting around the country to hold rallies — in three states on Monday alone. The election is widely seen as a referendum on the first two years of his term.
He had allegedly lashed out online against Jews he accused of transporting Central American "invaders" into the United States — in language that echoed Trump's attacks on impoverished migrants coming through Mexico.
