🔴 2026 US Midterm Elections
Senate
Basis: chamber-wide totals including the 65 seats not up this year (Democratic caucus 34, Republicans 31; the Democratic caucus includes two independents who caucus with Democrats). Of the 35 seats up this year, AP has called 8, all Democratic holds; 27 remain uncalled. A 50–50 Senate is effectively Republican via the vice president's tie-breaking vote, so Democrats need 51: they are 9 seats away, Republicans 20.
House of Representatives
Counting under way: seats are being called state by state; control has not been called
Pre-election composition (not a result): Republicans 218, Democrats 214, one independent caucusing with Republicans, two vacancies. In the national House popular vote, AP figures with about 6% of precincts reporting show Democrats at roughly 12.0 million votes to Republicans' 9.5 million — an early, eastern-heavy count that does not determine the seat split.
Governors
Thirty-six states are electing governors. Results are coming in with no major upset called so far; Democratic-held states such as Maryland and Massachusetts are expected to hold, and the race to succeed California's governor is being watched. Pre-election forecasts pointed to Democratic gains, but only AP calls count here.
Key Races
AP call: Democratic senator Jon Ossoff holds the seat with about 57% of the vote. A divided Republican primary field helped Democrats keep a must-win seat.
AP call: Democratic senator Mark Warner holds the seat — one of the first battleground-state results of the night.
AP call: Democratic senator Cory Booker holds the seat.
Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire: AP has called each for the Democrats — expected holds of safe seats.
The Democrats' top flip target. Republican senator John Cornyn defends against Democratic state representative James Talarico; final pre-election polls gave Democrats a slight edge. About a fifth of the vote is in; not called.
An open-seat fight: Democrat Abdul El-Sayed against former Republican congressman Mike Rogers. Pre-election polls favoured Democrats, though a public late-campaign rift inside the Democratic camp added uncertainty. Counting has barely begun.
Republican senator Susan Collins faces Democratic challenger Jackson; the final NYT/Siena poll put Jackson ahead 51–45. Maine uses ranked-choice voting; if no one clears 50%, a retabulation could delay the outcome.
An open seat left by retiring Republican senator Thom Tillis, rated Democrats' best flip opportunity. Early counting; not called.
The special election for the seat vacated by Vice President Vance, deciding who holds it through 2028. About a third of the vote is in; not called.
The special election for the seat vacated by Secretary of State Marco Rubio. More than 90% of the vote is in and it still has not been called — one of the tightest Senate races of the night.
Republican senator Roger Marshall defends; unexpectedly close pre-election polls moved this race from solidly Republican to a toss-up.
An open seat left by retiring Republican senator Joni Ernst in a Republican-governed state; rated a toss-up.
Independent Dan Osborn challenges Republican senator Pete Ricketts. If Osborn wins, his undecided caucus choice would directly change the Senate maths.
Polls here close at 1 a.m. Eastern. Alaska uses ranked-choice voting, with retabulation set for November 18 and certification targeted for November 25 — the slowest Senate result to confirm.
