Americans Vote in Midterms as Control of Congress Hangs in Balance
- On Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026, Americans voted in high-stakes midterm elections to decide control of Congress and shape President Donald Trump's final two years. All 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats are contested.
- More than 57 million Americans cast ballots early before Tuesday, according to University of Florida Election Lab data, signaling record participation and high voter energy across the nation.
- U.S. District Judge James Boasberg rejected a Trump administration lawsuit Monday that sought to block 20,000 California mail-in ballots, calling the administration's lists "flawed" and allegedly cast by noncitizens.
- Democrats aim to flip three House seats and four Senate seats to wrest control from Republicans. A Democratic majority could stall President Trump's legislative agenda and threaten his Supreme Court appointments.
- Large numbers of mail-in ballots in California may delay final projections for days or weeks. Historically, flipping both chambers in a midterm is rare, occurring only three times since 1946.
