Parolin: “Midterm election results? Let’s hope there is a willingness to work together”

Rome, 5 Nov. (LaPresse) – “The results of the US midterm elections? Let’s hope there is a willingness to work together. We will seek viable solutions for the good of the country, as we hope will be the case. I imagine that the fact the Democrats have secured a majority in both houses will bring about changes. Now we’ll see how they handle things. Let’s hope reason and common sense prevail.” The cardinal then commented on the fact that Pope Leo had voted: “That has never happened before. Ultimately, I believe he remains a US citizen. He has every right to do so.”
