La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que el giro "a mitad de(l) mandato" es preferible al anglicismo "midterm" y a alternativas como "de medio mandato" o "de medio término" por ser menos precisas (la primera porque puede sugerir que los cargos elegidos se mantendrán solo durante medio mandato y la segunda porque recurre al calco "término" como traducción inadecuada de "term").
