美国总统选举采取选举人团（The Electoral College）制度，50个州按人口比例分配选举人票，获得538张选举人票中的至少270张即为获胜。
什么是选举人团？
The Electoral College is a group of people appointed by each party.
选举人团是各政党选出的一群人。
The total number of electors is equal to the number of members in Congress: 538.
选举人团代表的总人数和国会议员人数相等：都是538人。
Each state gets electors based on its population. So, Wyoming has 3; New York has 29.
每个州的选举人团代表人数基于该州的人口决定。比如怀俄明州有3名代表，纽约州的代表有29名。
So, if Candidate A wins the most votes in, say, New York, (s)he gets all 29 electoral votes.
如果候选人A赢得了纽约州选举人团的大多数投票，他/她就赢了29张选举人团票数。
The goal is to get to 270, which is just over half of 538.
最终赢得270张选举人团票数者获胜，即538张票的半数。
美媒预测共和党赢得参议院控制权
综合路透社、《国会山报》、美联社等多家美媒报道，当地时间11月5日，美国共和党在西弗吉尼亚州和俄亥俄州赢得参议院席位的选举后，已在参议院获得了51个席位，赢得了参议院的控制权。此前民主党掌握参议院控制权。
The Republican Party was projected by multiple US media to win back the majority in the US Senate early Wednesday after flipping two seats from the Democratic Party.
The two seats the Republicans won back from the Democrats are in the states of Ohio and West Virginia, with Bernie Moreno and Jim Justice emerging victorious, respectively.
美国国会分为众议院和参议院。参议院由100个席位组成，这100个席位平均分配给美国的50个州，每个州固定拥有2个席位，参议员的任期为六年，且每两年会有三分之一的席位面临改选。
在2022年的中期选举之后，共和党和民主党分别控制了众议院和参议院。
