Votes are being counted in the 2026 US midterm elections, held on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. This page tracks live results for every Senate, House and governor race, with a closer look at Georgia, where Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff faced Republican Rep. Mike Collins. The live results above refresh on their own every 5 minutes, so you can keep this page open.
Georgia Senate race: Ossoff vs Collins
Georgia was one of the most watched Senate races of 2026. Jon Ossoff, a Democrat, first won the seat in a January 2021 runoff against David Perdue and was running for a second term. His opponent, Mike Collins, is a two-term Republican congressman from Georgia's 10th District who was backed by President Donald Trump.
NBC News projected Ossoff the winner shortly after polls closed in Georgia at 7 p.m. Eastern, and The Associated Press also called the race for him. Georgia requires a candidate to win more than 50% of the vote in a general election. If nobody clears that bar, the top two candidates go to a runoff, which this year would be held on December 1, 2026.
Georgia governor race
Georgia is also electing a new governor, because Brian Kemp cannot run again due to term limits. The race is between Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms, a former mayor of Atlanta, and Republican Rick Jackson. The Georgia Governor card in the live results shows the latest count.
Who will control the Senate?
35 of the 100 Senate seats are on the ballot: the 33 regular seats in this cycle plus special elections in Ohio and Florida. Before the election, Republicans held 53 seats and Democrats held 47, including two independents who caucus with them. A party needs 51 seats for an outright majority. In a 50-50 Senate, Vice President JD Vance, a Republican, casts the tie-breaking vote.
The Senate bar in the live results also counts the 65 seats that were not up this year, so it shows the full chamber as races are called.
Who will control the House?
All 435 House seats are up for election, and the party that wins 218 seats controls the chamber. The House bar only counts seats where a winner has been projected, so it fills in through the night and over the following days as close districts finish counting.
2026 governor races
36 states are electing governors in 2026. The governors bar includes the 14 states that are not voting this year, so it shows how many governorships each party will hold once every race is called.
When will the 2026 midterm results be final?
Most races are projected on election night or the next day, but close races can take longer. States such as California, Arizona and Nevada count large numbers of mail ballots after Election Day, and every state has to finish counting provisional ballots before it certifies. Media race calls are projections based on the votes counted so far. The official result is the one each state certifies, usually within a few weeks.
Where these live results come from
The vote counts on this page come from civicAPI, a free public election results API. The page checks for new numbers every 5 minutes and shows the time of the latest update. For official Georgia numbers, you can also check the Georgia Secretary of State results site.
Large newsrooms run their own results pages too. The Associated Press declares winners that many outlets rely on, and The New York Times runs its well-known "needle," a live forecast that estimates the final result from the votes counted so far. Calls can differ slightly between sources, especially in close races.
How this live results tracker works
I built this tracker into my own site with Cloudflare Pages Functions. A small API pulls the latest Senate, House and governor numbers, keeps a cached copy so the page stays fast even when the data source is busy, and refreshes it every 5 minutes. Search engines and AI assistants get the same numbers in plain HTML. If you need a live data dashboard or an API integration like this, take a look at my web development services.
