Detailed Factual Report
The makeup of Congress shifted dramatically in the 2026 midterm elections , as Democrats decisively won control of the Senate and picked up dozens of House seats — in what's on track to be one of the largest midterm routs in recent decades .
The exact margins of Congress are not yet clear, as winners have not yet been projected in two Senate races and more than two dozen House races. They include GOP-held districts with razor-thin margins, a few Democratic seats that could flip to Republicans and several races in California and other Western states that still need to count ballots.
Here's a look at the congressional races that CBS News has not yet projected, including where the results stand:
Democrats are set to enter next year with at least 54 Senate seats, compared to Republicans' 44. Two Senate races still haven't been called — one has long been viewed as a battleground, and the other came out of nowhere.
