Trump Says He'll Be 'Mr. Veto' if Democrats Win Both Chambers
Trump says he will veto Democratic priorities if the party wins Congress, as 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats are on the ballot.
- Americans voted yesterday, November 3, in midterm elections determining power for President Donald Trump's remaining term, with about 210 million registered voters choosing among 435 House seats, 35 Senate seats, and 36 governorships.
- Trump's Republican Party currently holds majorities in both the House and Senate. Democrats seek to flip enough seats to control at least one chamber, which would constrain the president's legislative power.
- The Supreme Court rejected Trump's request to exclude up to 20,000 disputed mail-in ballots in California. A federal judge had previously ordered the administration to stop demanding that officials set aside these votes.
- Democratic Congresswoman Haley Stevens endorsed Republican Mike Rogers over her party's nominee, Abdul El-Sayed, shaking the Michigan Senate race. Stevens had previously lost the primary to El-Sayed.
- On the last day of campaigning, Trump declared the economy "booming." Vice President JD Vance separately reported "good conversations" with Tehran regarding a deal to avoid a return of strikes.
