Trump rallies voters for midterms while cost of living remains top concern

Former President Trump is mobilizing a "voter integrity army" for the 2026 midterm elections, aiming to recruit volunteers to monitor polling places and ensure election security. This initiative is framed as a response to concerns about election integrity, with Democrats also announcing a "task force" to counter Republican efforts, which they label as attempts to manipulate the system. However, polls indicate that for most Americans, the primary concern for the midterms is the rising cost of living, exacerbated by the Iran war, rather than election security issues.
