In approximately 14 months, voters will once again head to the polls to vote. The 2026 midterm elections are sure to be contentious with so much at stake. Up for grabs: every seat in the House, 35 seats in the Senate, and 39 gubernatorial elections. Historically, the midterm elections are a referendum on the current president and his performance. The party in power plays up the strengths and successes of the first two years. The minority party is eager to do the opposite and point to perceived failures and weaknesses. This further extends to incumbents or new candidates up for election on either side. And voters must decide if they want more of the same or a course correction.
