A majority of Americans who voted on Tuesday in the US midterm elections would not want incumbent President Joe Biden to run for a second term in 2024, CNN reported Wednesday, citing exit polls.

A total of more than two-thirds of voters oppose Biden's candidacy in the upcoming presidential election. They are the vast majority among Republican supporters: 9 in 10 participants, and 7 in 10 among independent voters.

At the same time, less than 60% of Democrats' supporters believe the 46th president should be chosen to run for the Oval Office again.

Voting at the US midterm elections has ended. Americans cast their votes for all 435 members of the House of Representatives and a third of the Senate.

In addition, governors of 36 states and three US overseas territories were elected. 

Local experts do not exclude the possibility that the ruling Democratic Party may lose control of the House and Senate after the elections, giving way to the opposition, the Republicans.
