The BBC reported that as Americans prepare to vote in the upcoming midterm elections, many are focused on the issue of rising living costs.

BBC correspondent Clive Myrie visited North Carolina and spoke with voters who voiced their concerns about inflation and financial hardship.

Some voters described extreme measures they have taken due to economic pressures, highlighting the significance of the issue in their voting decisions.

Surveys indicate that the cost of living is a central factor influencing how many Americans will cast their ballots in the elections.

The midterm elections will determine control of Congress, making the economic concerns of voters a critical aspect of the political landscape.
