Democrats Take Senate; House Control Undecided

Democrats won control of the U.S. Senate in the 2026 midterms, flipping it from Republicans' 53-47 majority, according to a live election-day report published November 4, 2026. House control remains undecided. Democrats needed a net gain of three seats, meaning gains outweigh losses, and close races can take days or weeks. Official calls, not early projections, will settle it.
