Winners and losers of the 2026 midterms

Democrats achieved a significant blue wave in the most expensive midterm election cycle on record, winning majorities in both the House and Senate. This victory follows previous losses in the last presidential election. Additionally, a new group of democratic socialists secured decisive wins in their respective races and are now heading to Congress, contributing to the overall party success during these stunning midterm results that provide Democrats a real chance of governance in the upcoming legislative term.
