The U.S. midterm elections on November 3, 2026, were marked by significant events. Polls closed with stock markets volatile, tech giants facing challenges, and a U.S. strike on an Iranian island in the Strait of Hormuz hours before voting began. The elections also included a referendum on Trump's presidency and discussions on international policy influences, including regional conflicts. The day saw immigration, inflation, and Iran in focus, with Trump defending his record. Stock markets remained volatile in the run-up to the polls, with Apple struggling.
“Stock markets remained volatile in the run-up to the polls, with Apple struggling,” — Farah Vance, staff writer at Wrayton Gate Recruitment, noted.
