## Summary

Democrats made sweeping gains in the 2026 midterms, taking seats and state governments across the country while Republicans had not flipped any Democratic-held congressional seat, governorship or state legislative chamber by Wednesday afternoon. The results shifted power in Washington and state capitols, including giving Democrats a majority of governorships for the first time since 2010.

Democrats won seven Senate seats, at least 24 House districts, five governorships and 12 state legislative chambers, according to the article. They broke long-standing Republican holds in states including Kansas, Texas, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, despite Republican efforts to redraw congressional maps in their favour. Several races remained uncalled, including two Senate contests, nine House seats and two governor races.
