[Vance said the midterm election defeat was due to the war in Iran] November 5th, US Vice President Vance posted a post on social media on November 4th, local time, blaming the Republican Party's midterm election defeat on the war with Iran. Vance said: "The root cause of our loss of the election is this war. The president himself has admitted this." Vance pointed out in the post that the turnout rate of Republican voters is not low, "but the core problem is not the turnout rate. The real problem is: many voters who voted for Trump and me in 2024 voted for the Democrats in the 2026 midterm elections." Vance said that a well-known polling expert asked "defective" voters how to bring them back to the Republican camp. The top four answers that accounted for the vast majority of responses were: ending the war, focusing on the cost of living and inflation, adhering to "America First", and adjusting relations with Israel.
