CA House Races 2026: Real-Time Results
Live results show California’s 52 House races and local ballot measures as officials count mail-in ballots and update tight contests through the night.
On Tuesday, Nov 3, 2026, Berkeley voters cast ballots in the general election as preliminary results rolled in for California's 52 Congressional races and local ballot measures.
The election marked the first general contest since voters approved Prop 50 last year, which redrew Congressional district maps to create fewer competitive districts than in years past.
Legal tensions escalated as the Justice Department sought to block election officials from counting more than 20,000 ballots. La Sierra University Professor Andrew Howe criticized the effort, saying it aimed to "call the democratic process into question."
Preliminary national trends indicate voters handed control of the U.S. House of Representatives to Democrats. Representative Zoe Lofgren stated that "Californians are fed up with Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans not focusing on their financial well-being."
Election officials will continue counting ballots in coming days, with the next update scheduled for Friday, Nov 6, 2026. Final certification in Alameda County can take up to a month as mail-in votes are processed.
