U.S. consumers expect the Republican Party will win control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, a new survey has found.

The survey of 1,201 consumers from the University of Michigan asked American consumers over the past two months which party they expect to win in the elections. Vote counting is currently underway after the midterms.
