Republicans appeared headed for a massive mid-term election triumph in the US with barely 24 hours to go for key Congressional polls, as the final opinion polls predicted the party wresting control of the House of Representatives.
Opinion polls logged just hours before the polling commenced show Republicans set to win the House of Representatives and eat hugely into the Democratic majority in the Senate, dividing power in Washington and forging a polarised prelude to Obama's 2012 re-election bid.
Republicans held a six point edge 49 per cent to 46 per cent over their traditional Democrat rivals, according to the final NBC News/Wall Street Journal survey.
With the opinion polls showing a much larger swing for Republicans than the 1994 elections when they for the first time in 40 years gained majority in the House of Representatives.
