| Welcome to The Week in Charts, where we break down Gallup's latest insights on our constantly evolving world. Here are the five insights you shouldn't miss this week: | 1. Election Day in America! | | | | It's voting day in America! But how fired up are voters to participate in this election cycle? We've asked about enthusiasm to vote in every midterm back to the 1990s — and this year, while we don't see the same level as we did in 2018, enthusiasm remains strong, in line with the trend average since 1994.

While a majority of Americans express some degree of confidence that, across the country, votes will be accurately cast and counted in today's elections, that masks a yawning partisan gap. Over eight in 10 Democrats are confident in the integrity of the process, while four in 10 Republicans are not. Here's the trend surprise: In 2008, there was less confidence in the integrity of elections among Americans overall, but NO partisan difference.

Four in 10 U.S. registered voters (41%) said they would vote before Election Day this year, up from 34% found in the prior (pre-COVID) midterm elections of 2018.

What's at Stake? | | | | Traditionally, national mood indicators have been useful in getting a sense of how many congressional seats the party in power stands to lose in a midterm election year. Some of our indicators, like U.S. satisfaction and economic conditions, leave the Democrats in an unenviable position — if the past equals the future. Two weeks before the midterms, President Joe Biden's job approval rating, Congress' approval rating and Americans' satisfaction with the country's direction all pointed to potential blue losses on Election Day.

That's a question that we've been asking workers around the world, in partnership with the Wellbeing for Planet Earth Foundation, as we explore how wellbeing is defined and experienced across cultures. Of late, we've been tackling wellbeing at work — where many of us will spend up to nearly a third of our lifetime — and are finding a big gap in life ratings between workers who enjoy what they do and those who don't.
