Mississippi and Alaska Senate Races Remain Uncalled Amid Ongoing Ballot Counts
The US Senate races in Mississippi and Alaska remain undecided days after the 2026 midterm elections due to outstanding ballots and state-specific counting processes. In Mississippi, Democrat Scott Colom leads Republican incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith by a narrow margin with about 96% of votes counted, pending provisional and mail-in ballot verification. Alaska's race involves ranked-choice voting, potentially requiring additional counting rounds. These contests will not affect Senate control, as Democrats have secured a majority, but will determine the size of their majority in the 120th Congress.
