The U.S. midterm elections are widely expected to be closely run at all levels. Pundits predict that control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate could change hands and the outlook for many state gubernatorial elections is equally uncertain. In a post-election webchat Robert H. Tuttle, the American Ambassador to London, will discuss the significance and impact of the November 7th results.
