Voters across the country are casting ballots in the 2026 midterm elections, with control of Congress and dozens of governors at stake.
All 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and 35 seats in the U.S. Senate are on the ballot this year. The results will determine which party controls each chamber of Congress for the next two years, shaping the direction of federal legislation, government spending, and oversight of the president’s administration.
Voters in 36 states are also choosing governors, whose decisions influence state budgets, education, health care, transportation, and other policies that affect residents’ daily lives.
