00:00Hello everybody, I'm Scott Shuey and this is the Gulf News Update on the U.S. midterm

00:07elections.

00:08All right, in about a half hour we're going to see the first polls close in Kentucky and

00:12Indiana.

00:13And we have seen some of the early exit poll information come out.

00:16Ed, what are we seeing?

00:17So from the earliest exit polls conducted by CNN, there's some really interesting information

00:23that we can glean from that.

00:25Two-thirds of voters say that their vote in today's congressional elections was inspired

00:30by Donald Trump.

00:32We know that a sizable one in six voters say that this election is the first time they're

00:36casting a ballot in a midterm contest.

00:40And Trump has proved very divisive again.

00:43Actually a majority of voters see him in a negative light, 55% of them say that they're

00:49not pleased with him, whereas 45% say they are.

00:52So his approval rating is net negative among the nation's voters at this point.

00:57All right, we may have a bellwether of how the elections are going to go when Kentucky's

01:01polls close.

01:02In the sixth district there, we're looking at a U.S. Marine combat pilot who is actually

01:08challenging a Republican incumbent.

01:11If she wins that election, that could sign bad things for the Republicans for the rest

01:15of the evening.

01:16It may indicate an ongoing trend among the populace in these votes.

01:19So we'll have to wait and see how that comes out.

01:21All right, so keep checking back at gulfnews.com and we'll update you throughout the evening.

01:25Thanks for watching.
