2026 US Midterm Elections to Decide Congressional Control and State Offices
The 2026 United States midterm elections, scheduled for November 3, will determine control of Congress, including all 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats, as well as 36 governorships and various state offices. These elections occur midway through President Donald Trump's second term and will influence his legislative agenda. Voters will consider issues such as the economy, immigration, healthcare, and foreign policy. Republicans currently hold slim majorities, making the outcome critical for congressional control and the administration's ability to advance priorities.
