NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- U.S. stocks were poised to open higher Wednesday, as Wall Street cheered a number of Republican election wins ahead of the Federal Reserve's latest policy meeting decision.
Less than two hours before the open, S&P 500, Nasdaq-100 and Dow Jones industrial average futures were higher.
