Control of the Senate
Which Senate Races Could Decide Control?
The balance of power depends on individual Senate elections. Our dedicated Senate page covers the chamber-wide race-rating summary, the state-by-state battleground map, and the latest rating changes. These are dated editorial race ratings, not sportsbook odds. For market prices on the chamber, see our Senate control odds.
A national Senate control wager and a bet on one state Senate race are different markets. The outcome and settlement of any wager depend on that market’s displayed terms.
Election basics
What is on the Ballot in 2026?
The midterms decide the next U.S. House and the Senate seats scheduled for this cycle. Some states will also choose governors. The federal general election is November 3, 2026; each state controls its own ballot and voting procedures.
The results could shape President Trump’s final two years in office. Congressional control affects legislation and oversight, while the Senate also considers presidential nominations.
U.S. House Seats
Every House seat is up for election during a midterm cycle.
U.S. Senate Seats
Senate terms are staggered, so only a portion of the chamber is up each cycle.
Governor Races
Governor elections appear on some state ballots, alongside other state contests.
Election and congressional sources: USAGov on midterms, FEC election information, House oversight and Senate nominations.

Election betting explained
How do You Read and Compare Election Odds?
Start with the outcome named in the market, then read the American price and settlement conditions. A positive price such as +150 would return $150 profit on a winning $100 stake. A negative price such as -150 would require a $150 stake for $100 profit. These are examples, not current election lines. For a full step-by-step guide, see how to bet on elections.
1. Choose the Outcome
Is the market about a candidate, a state, the House, or Senate control?
2. Check the Current Price

Quick answers
2026 Midterm Election Odds FAQ
When are the 2026 Midterm Elections?
The regularly scheduled U.S. federal general election is Tuesday, November 3, 2026. State voting rules and local deadlines vary; check your state election office for voting information.
What offices are on the ballot in the 2026 Midterms?
All 435 U.S. House seats and roughly one-third of U.S. Senate seats are up for election. Some states also elect governors and other state officials. Each state determines its own ballot.
What are 2026 Midterm Election Odds?
Election odds are prices on a defined outcome, such as a party winning a chamber or a candidate winning a state race. The available market, exact wording, price, and settlement rules depend on the sportsbook. Check your BUSR account for any markets offered to you.
Are the odds on this page BUSR prices?
The labeled reference snapshots on this page come from third parties and include their source dates. They are not BUSR prices or proof that BUSR offers a particular market. Log in to BUSR to check current availability and terms.
Is a toss-up rating the same as even Betting Odds?
No. A toss-up is an editorial race rating. It is not a sportsbook price, a 50 percent probability, or a prediction that the candidates have equal chances. The map and rating changes on this page are separate from the market snapshots.
How is a Senate control market different from a state Senate Race?
A Senate control market concerns which party holds the chamber under that market’s settlement rules. A state race market concerns the winner of one election. Read each market’s exact wording before placing a wager.
How do American election odds work?
Positive American odds show the profit on a $100 winning bet; for example, +150 means $150 profit. Negative odds show the stake needed for $100 profit; for example, -150 means risking $150 for $100 profit. These are illustrative examples, not current election prices.
Do polls or race ratings determine the Winning Bet?
Polls and editorial race ratings are information, not the settlement rules for a wager. The sportsbook’s market terms determine what outcome counts and how the bet is graded.
Why does an election market say odds are not yet available?
A market may not be posted or available for your account or location. A missing price should not be treated as a zero price or an offered wager. Check BUSR for the markets and terms currently available to you.
Can election odds change before November 3?
Yes. A posted sportsbook price can change as the market changes, and a reference snapshot may be out of date. Confirm the displayed price and market terms in your BUSR account before placing a bet.
