The Supreme Court has rejected former President Donald Trump's request to halt the counting of disputed ballots in California, a decision that comes just before the midterm elections. This ruling effectively ends the Trump administration's attempt to disqualify votes in the state, allowing for all ballots to be processed.
Americans are heading to the polls for the 2026 midterm elections, which are widely seen as a referendum on Trump's presidency and will determine the balance of power in Congress. The outcomes of these elections are expected to shape the political landscape for the remainder of Trump's term and influence the direction of the 2028 presidential race. Key issues for voters include affordability and various aspects impacting the tech industry.
