From the admittedly little that I've read on the 1942 midterms, it was a mix of very low turnout (only 33%) and people generally being unhappy with how the war was going.

That's obviously the answer, though FDR had high approvals for his foreign policy in 1942. I think it was mainly due to low turnout. That's actually lower than 2014.
