Americans go to the polls on November 3 for elections that will shape the final two years of Donald Trump's presidency and as announced by the president, Republicans have started their campaign with full force. US Vice President JD Vance addressed a campaign rally in Alaska and said that it is Republicans' midterm election firewall ​in their bid to retain control of Congress. He was rallying with voters for Senator Dan Sullivan, a Republican locked ‌in a tight reelection campaign with Democratic former Congresswoman Mary Peltola. With polls in mind, Sullivan was made the face of ​Trump administration $200-billion energy investment package ⁠in Alaska that includes a South Korea-backed pipeline.
