距离美国人前往投票站仅剩两天,来自全国各地的选民透露,他们做出中期选举决定的驱动力,可能更多地源于对自己所反对事物的沮丧,而不是对他们所信仰事物的支持。
With just two days until Americans head to the polls, voters from across the country revealed that their midterm decisions may be driven more by frustration with what they oppose than by support for what they believe in.
科罗拉多州的一名选民在被《福克斯新闻数字频道》问及打算如何投票时说:“全投民主党,因为特朗普是个白痴。”
"The Democrats down the line because Trump is an idiot," one voter from Colorado said when asked by Fox News Digital how he plans to vote.
来自华盛顿特区的露西说:“我是一名民主党选民。我受够了本届政府。我对这个城市、这个地区以及这个国家正在发生的事情感到非常沮丧——全都是谎言。”尽管总统唐纳德·特朗普并没有出现在中期选举的选票上,《福克斯新闻数字频道》交谈过的大多数民主党选民仍将他的政府列为他们今年投票支持民主党国会候选人名单的驱动因素。
"I'm a Democratic voter," Lucy from Washington, D.C., said. "I am sick of the administration. I have been very upset about what's happening to this city and this area and this country — all the lies." Despite President Donald Trump not appearing on the midterm ballot, most Democrat voters whom Fox News Digital spoke with cited his administration as their driving factor to vote for Democrats for this year’s congressional slate. "Democrats," Mark from Utah said about who he is voting for.
犹他州的马克在谈到他将投票支持谁时说:“民主党人。因为腐败、生活成本、民主。这个政府似乎并不关心宪法。总统在让自己发财,而全国其余地区却越来越穷。”中期选举关乎国会控制权,民主党正试图赢得足够多的席位,以便在他总统任期的剩余时间里挑战特朗普的立法议程。
"Because of corruption, cost of living, democracy. It doesn't seem like this administration cares about the Constitution. The president's enriching himself and the rest of the country is getting more poor." Control of Congress is at stake in the midterms, with Democrats seeking to gain enough seats to challenge Trump's legislative agenda during the remainder of his presidency.

一名民主党选民甚至承认他赞同某些共和党政策,但指出他反对特朗普的立场超过了他的右翼倾向。来自纽约的杰里米说:“我通常投民主党。”
One Democrat voter even acknowledged his agreement with some Republican policies, but noted his opposition to Trump outweighs his right-leaning stances. "I generally vote Democrat," Jeremy from New York said.
他接着说:“这很有趣,因为我同意很多共和党人的立场。我只是觉得,当你支持一个不幸掌权的人,比如现在这个人时,这是我真的无法支持的。”
He continued, "It's funny because I agree with a lot of the Republican stances. I just feel like when you get behind someone who's unfortunately in charge, like the man that is, then this is something I can't really support."
另一位选民表示,他在过去的选举中把票投给了特朗普和共和党人,但由于他声称特朗普政府缺乏后续行动,他决定在即将到来的选举中投票给民主党。
Another voter said he voted for Trump and Republicans in previous elections, but has decided to vote Democrat in the upcoming election because he claims there was a lack of follow-through by the Trump administration.
来自弗吉尼亚州的一名选民说:“经过六年的让美国再次伟大,我们并没有再次伟大。所以我打算倒戈。”反对情绪并非民主党选民所独有。《福克斯新闻数字频道》采访的少数计划投票给共和党的选民也将对反对党的担忧作为他们中期选举决定的主要因素。
"After six years of Make America Great Again, we're not great again," one voter from Virginia said. "So I'm switching." Opposition wasn't limited to Democrat voters. The few voters who told Fox News Digital they planned to vote Republican also expressed concerns about the opposing party as major factors in their midterm decisions.

亚戈说:“我投共和党。原因是我不想在这个国家看到社会主义。社会主义除了毁掉一切什么也没做。”
"I'm voting Republican," Yago said. "The reason why is because I do not want to see socialism in this country. Socialism did nothing but destroy everything."
来自伊利诺伊州的约翰在谈到是什么促使他投票给红色阵营时说:“首先,仅仅是社会政策。我认为在过去几年里,我们看到了民主党人在社会政策、家庭政策、性别政策以及所有这些方面所倡导的东西。我认为特别是堕胎问题。”其他选民指出了推动他们做出决定的具体问题,包括移民执法、外交政策、枪支权利和经济。
"First off, just social policies," John from Illinois said about what’s motivating him to vote red. "I think that over the past couple of years, we've seen what the Democrats promote, as far as social policies go, and family policy, gender policy, all that stuff. I think particularly abortion, too." Other voters pointed to specific issues driving their decisions, including immigration enforcement, foreign policy, gun rights and the economy.
计划投票给民主党的德克萨斯州人埃米利说:“我最关心的可能就是移民和海关执法局以及国土安全部正在发生的一切。”
"My main concern is probably just everything that's happening with ICE and DHS," Emily from Texas, who plans to vote Democrat, said.

另一位承诺支持共和党的选民表示,他的决定“归结为枪支管制”。
Another voter who pledged to support Republicans said his decision "comes down to gun control."
来自华盛顿特区的纳尔逊说:“第二修正案保护你的第一修正案。”
"The Second Amendment protects your First [Amendment]," Nelson from Washington, D.C., said.
来自华盛顿的卡米尔说:“说到帮助以色列而不向巴勒斯坦提供任何帮助的外交政策,这就是驱使我投票给民主党的原因。”
"When it comes to foreign policy with helping out Israel and not giving any help to Palestine," Kamil from Washington said, "That's what's driving me to vote for the Democrats instead."
对一些美国人来说,中期选举与其说是因为对任何一个政党的的热情,不如说是因为对他们认为国家正在滑向的方向的反对。
For some Americans, the midterm elections are shaping up to be less about enthusiasm for either political party and more about opposition to the direction they believe the country is heading.
