This article was found on Facebook and gives a good look at poll predictions in multiple states. This information was polled approximately one month before the midterm election date. This gives a good background of information to those who were still undecided with who to vote for. They also show how many people have called and gave their possible vote. It also shows the margin of error % to show that it may not be correct, but it is an approximate voter poll in that certain precinct.

https://youtu.be/QcUsLHzrRTA Washington Post posted a post-election video on YouTube that went over some of the big winners and losers of the 2018 USA midterm elections. It is a great idea to do a post-election video as some people might not have caught all the results that happened the previous night. With the time difference between east and west coast, as well as recounts, and results that were taking a long time to come in a lot of citizens might not have stayed up to see all the results.

There were multiple tweets like the one Mark Ruffalo tweeted about the midterm elections happening in the USA. It was a way to show that in 2016 they thought they were going to get a certain outcome but did not. So, in the midterms everyone was fighting so much harder for their voice to be heard. When celebrities tweet about it and they go viral it brings awareness to those who are not even in that country or voting.
