前总统克林顿在民主党在中期选举中大获全胜后发表声明，敦促该党以“谦逊和决心”重建公众信任。
Former President Clinton released a statement following the Democrats’ sweeping victory in the midterm elections urging them to work “with humility and determination” to rebuild public trust.
克林顿周三下午在社交平台X上发布的声明中说：“昨晚的胜利给了我们一个机会和责任去重建信任。我们应当以谦逊和决心，并向那些没有投我们候选人票的人伸出敞开的手，而不是紧握的拳头，来做到这一点。”他补充道：“我一直相信，当我们共同努力时，我们会做得更好。现在，美国人民又给了我们一次机会来证明这一点。让我们充分利用它。”
“Last night’s victory gives us an opportunity and a responsibility to rebuild trust,” Clinton said his statement posted to social platform X Wednesday afternoon. “We should do so with humility and determination, and an open hand, not a clenched fist, to those who didn’t vote for our candidates.”“I’ve always believed we do better when we work together. Now, the American people have given us another chance to prove it. Let’s make the most of it,” he added.
民主党赢得了参议院多数席位，并有望赢得54至56个席位。该党在得克萨斯州、南卡罗来纳州、堪萨斯州、俄亥俄州、爱荷华州、密歇根州和缅因州等关键摇摆州取得重大胜利。根据Decision Desk HQ的预测，该党还夺回了众议院控制权，预计将赢得约255个席位。
The Democrats won a Senate majority and are on track to win 54 to 56 seats. The party secured big wins in battleground states like Texas, South Carolina, Kansas, Ohio, Iowa, Michigan and Maine. The party also took control of the House and is projected to win around 255 seats, according to Decision Desk HQ.
候选人在密歇根州等州创造了历史，民主党人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德击败共和党人迈克·罗杰斯，成为首位当选进入参议院的穆斯林裔美国人。在堪萨斯州，民主党人亚当·汉密尔顿将成为自1939年以来该“向日葵州”首位民主党参议员。据《达拉斯晨报》报道，在得克萨斯州，众议员吉娜·伊诺霍萨（民主党籍）击败现任州长格雷格·阿博特，成为该州历史上首位当选的拉丁裔女州长。
Candidates made history in states like Michigan, where Democrat Abdul El-Sayed defeated Republican Mike Rogers to be the first Muslim American elected to the upper chamber. In Kansas, Democrat Adam Hamilton is going to be the first Democratic senator from the Sunflower State since 1939. In Texas, Rep. Gina Hinojosa (D) defeated incumbent Gov. Greg Abbott to be elected as the first Latina elected governor in the state, according to The Dallas Morning News.
前总统在声明中说：“昨晚当选的这些非凡候选人反映了美国的多样性和我们党的力量。”
“The extraordinary candidates elected last night reflect the diversity of America and the strength of our party,” the former president said in his statement.
克林顿在声明中暗示了“帮助家庭应对生活成本和保护他们的医疗保健”的重要性。全国各地的民主党候选人都以降低成本为竞选纲领。
In his statement, Clinton alluded to the importance of “helping families with the cost of living and protecting their health care.”Democrats across the country have campaigned on lowering costs.
近期民调显示，生活成本上涨是许多选民最关心的问题。路透社/益普索的一项民调发现，48%的选民将生活成本列为决定其投票的最重要因素。盖洛普上个月进行的一项调查发现，近半数受访者在投票前将经济和医疗保健视为极其重要的因素。
Recent polls show that the rising cost of living was a top concern for a lot of voters. A Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 48 percent of voters ranked cost of living as the most important factor in deciding their vote. A Gallup survey, conducted last month, found nearly half of the respondents marked the economy and healthcare as an extremely important factor before casting their ballots.
“美国人民给了我们明确的指示：把他们的需求置于华盛顿散发出的混乱和腐败之上，”克林顿说。
“The American people have given us clear direction: to put their needs ahead of the chaos and corruption coming out of Washington,” Clinton said.
