Story summary

As of November 3, 2026, the US midterm elections were ongoing, with early results expected from 10am AEDT. The Associated Press (AP) was providing live election results data for all 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats up for election that day. These races will determine which political party controls Congress during the remainder of President Trump's term. All 435 seats in the House were on the ballot, as members serve two-year terms, while only one-third of the 100 Senate seats were up for grabs due to staggered six-year terms. The AP has a dedicated team that calls races only when they are fully confident of their outcome, but projections or declarations of apparent winners had not been made yet.

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.
