Story summary

On November 3, 2026, U.S. citizens voted in midterm elections that decided control of Congress during President Donald Trump's final two years in office. The election saw a significant shift as Democrats were on track to win control of the House of Representatives, with Rep. Katherine Clark announcing early gains. Republicans previously held 218 seats against 214 for the Democrats, but high voter turnout and discontent over living costs, tariffs, and energy prices fueled by the Iran war likely contributed to Democratic victories. This election also determined governors in 36 states and state legislatures across the country, marking a pivotal moment that could reshape Trump's presidency.
