Biden's people 'hiding him away'; Putin ally admits 'surgically' meddling in US elections; Musk tells Americans how to vote | Midterms live updates

Elon Musk, whose purchase of Twitter was finalised last week, has tweeted that he recommends voters cast ballots in support of GOP candidates because Democrats control the White House.

This is the first such admission from a figure implicated by Washington in efforts to influence American politics.

Democrats and Republicans neck and neck in Congress race, poll suggests

Congressional preference is tied at 47%-47% among all registered voters, essentially unchanged from last month when Democrats held a narrow one-point lead. Their goal will be to encourage their supporters to either meet the early voting deadlines or turn up to vote in person on Tuesday.

Mr Mastriano has echoed Mr Trump's false claims of voter fraud and he was present at the US Capitol riot on 6 January 2021 to protest the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.The winner of the race will choose the state's top election official, who will oversee its 2024 presidential election and have the power to block or advance efforts by the Republican-led state legislature to severely restrict abortions.
