President Biden News Conference on Midterm Election Results
“It was a good day, I think, for democracy, and a good day for America,” said President Biden as he gave remarks from the White House on the 2022 midterm election results. He said that despite predictions from the press and pundits “of a giant red wave. … I felt good during the whole process” and that “Democrats had a strong night.” After his remarks, the president answered reporters' questions on China, Ukraine funding, and working with Republicans if they take control of the House of Representatives. At the time of this news conference, votes in many races were still being counted, and control in the 118th Congress had not yet been determined
