WASHINGTON (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 02nd November, 2018) Russia will work with those people who will be elected by the US nationals, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov told reporters.

"We will work with the people that the American people elect," Antonov said on Thursday.

On November 6, US voters will cast ballots in the midterm elections to fill 435 seats in the US House of Representatives, one-third of the 100-member Senate, and a number of local and statewide positions including governorships.

All three major groups of voters - Republicans, independents and Democrats - are showing record enthusiasm for voting this year compared with the 1994-2014 trend, potentially reflecting a more highly charged political atmosphere than in the past, according to a Gallup poll published on Thursday.

The outcome will determine whether the Republican Party maintains control of Congress. The midterm elections are also often seen as a referendum on the president's performance.
