The U.S. midterm elections on November 3, 2026, were marked by key moments. Polls closed with investment markets uncertain, Apple under pressure, 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 foreign policy impacts, including Ukraine and Iran. The day saw immigration issues, economic worries, and Iranian concerns, with Trump defending his record. Stock markets remained uncertain before the vote, with tech companies under strain.
