Eighty percent of registered voters told the Associated Press they'll be voting in next month's midterms.

The AP poll found many Republicans and Democrats are dissatisfied with the way things are going in the country. And many think the outcome of the upcoming midterm election will have a significant impact on the future.

In some states, absentee ballot requests have already surpassed 2018 numbers.
