Story summary

On November 3, 2026, U.S. citizens voted in midterm elections that determined control of Congress during President Donald Trump's final two years in office. Voters across the country cast ballots for all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and a third of Senate seats. The results saw Democrats gain significant ground, reversing Republican control of both chambers. Prior to the election, Trump had held rallies in traditional Republican strongholds and promised $5,000 USD to every adult U.S. citizen if his party retained control; however, exit polls showed his job approval rating at a record low 38%, down from 45% in 2018 midterms during his first term. The shift is attributed to voter discontent over rising costs of living and energy prices.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
