Preliminary results of the mid-term elections for the US Congress based on the results of processing 26% of the votes, the Democratic Party received 218 seats in the House of Representatives, the Republican Party - 208. In the Senate, the Democrats got a majority - 51 seats, the Republicans - 39. Turnout was a record, with 58.7 of the approximately 210 million early voters registered. On November 3, 2026, the midterm elections turned into a serious defeat for the Republican Party and President Donald Trump personally. Analysts point to the economic difficulties and the war with Iran as key factors. The result gives Democrats leverage to block legislative agendas and launch investigations in the last two years of Trump's presidency.
