Published

on

Voting is continuing right across the United States for the 2022 midterm elections.

The Democrats are staring down the barrel of a red wave.

For two years, the party has held the House and the Senate, both of which could flip to the Republican party.

Polls suggest the Republicans will almost certainly take the House, while the the result in the Senate will come down to the wire.

More than 45 million Americans have already had their say in pre-election polling.

All 435 seats in the House are up for grabs, as well as 35 seats in the 100-member Senate, 36 state governorships, three U.S. territory governorships and a large number of city mayorships and local offices.

In a further 37 states, issues including laws on abortion, marijuana and voting rights are also up for a vote.

Pennsylvania is one of the nation’s key races to watch.

The state’s attorney general, Democrat Josh Shapiro, is facing off against Doug Mastriano for governor. Mastriano is a Trump-backed senator.

The winner in this race will be able to choose the state’s election officials for 2024 and alter voting restrictions.

Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Mehmet Oz battling for the state’s all-important Senate seat.

In Georgia, Democrat Raphael Warnock is up against Trump-backed football star Herschel Walker.

Walker stands by his anti-abortion views, despite claims from two women that he has paid for them both to terminate a pregnancy.

Republican Senator Lindsay Graham says there hasn’t been another candidate who has been dehumanised and bullied like Walker.

Trump-backed Republican and former TV news anchor Kari Lake is facing off against Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs for governor.

Lake is a Democrat who rose to prominence after fighting back against Trump’s election fraud claims.

In Texas, at the top of the ticket is the state’s current governor, Republican Greg Abbott.

Abbott is running for his third term against Democrat hopeful Beto O’Rourke.

O’Rourke has broken fundraising records against Abbott and has set up a tough challenge.

He wants to see marijuana legalised in the state.

Published

on

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.
