BBC News reported in a video on the cost of living for US voters that rising living costs are top of mind for voters in the United States ahead of the midterm elections. The headline for the piece includes the phrase "I've had people eating cat food," and the available summary does not identify who said it.
According to the summary of the BBC News video, the BBC's Clive Myrie travelled to a place the summary spells North Caroline, where voters voiced their frustrations ahead of the midterm elections. The summary does not name the voters, describe the specific costs they raised, or give any figures on prices, wages or household spending.
BBC News, in the summary, spells the location North Caroline, and this report cannot confirm the location beyond that spelling. The summary also does not say whether the frustrations voiced were tied to particular policies, parties or candidates.
The summary places the voters' comments in the context of the midterm elections but does not describe the races, candidates or dates involved. No other outlet's reporting was provided for this story, so no second account of the events is available here.
BBC News's summary does not indicate whether the video includes the voters' full remarks or any interviews beyond those described. Readers seeking the complete account would need to consult the video itself, which is the only source for this report.
The summary's reference to the midterm elections is limited to describing them as upcoming, and it does not provide election dates or any polling.
