2026 Midterm Election Preview: Texas Senate Primaries Kick Off High-Stakes Race
The 2026 midterm election cycle is set to begin with two closely watched U.S. Senate primaries in Texas on Tuesday. Voters in three states will select nominees for the November general election. Republicans currently hold a 53-47 majority in the Senate, making it challenging for Democrats to regain control. However, Democrats are optimistic that favorable primary results in Texas could help them compete in a year when the president's party usually faces losses in Congress.
