In the closing hours of the U.S. 2022 midterm election, President Joe Biden offered a frank assessment of his party's chance of retaining control of both the House and Senate. "I think we'll win the Senate. I think the House is tougher." Asked what the reality of governing will be like, he responded, "More difficult." Biden was returning to the White House after an evening rally in Maryland, where Democrats have one of their best opportunities to reclaim a Republican-held governor's seat. The Maryland event followed Biden's late-campaign strategy of sticking largely to his party's strongholds rather than stumping in more competitive territory, where control of Congress may ultimately be decided. Biden won Maryland with more than 65% of the vote in 2020 and appeared with Wes Moore, the 44-year-old Rhodes Scholar who could become the state's first Black governor.
