Races

The 2026 races

Every Senate seat, every governorship and every House district with a public poll — one page per contest, with the polls and the money each read from a named public feed. Election Day was November 3, 2026. The polls shown are the final pre-election field.

What is on this page, and what is not

No results, no odds. There is no free, documented feed of vote counts or race calls, so this page does not pretend to one, and it does not use prediction-market prices. It carries the two things that have public feeds: the polls (New York Times poll data via PollResults.org, CC BY 4.0) and the money (Federal Election Commission candidate totals and independent-expenditure totals; governors are state-regulated and have no federal money feed).

The implied rating on each race is derived from the poll leader's margin over the runner-up — 15 points or more is Safe, 8 Likely, 4 Lean, under 4 a Toss-up. It is not a handicapper's call. An unpolled seat shows the top fundraiser from each major party, labelled as such. The party shown as held is the party holding the seat going into the election. Figures as of 2026-11-04 00:20 UTC.
