Polymarket prices Democrats at 89.5% to win the House majority (late August 2026). Historically, the president's party loses seats in midterms; with Donald Trump in the White House since January 2025, this structural headwind is particularly strong. Democrats need only a net gain of 3–5 seats; the generic ballot shows +4–7 points in their favour. Balance-of-Power scenarios: 51% Democratic Sweep, 36% R-Senate/D-House, 12% R-Sweep. Own calibration at 88% — slightly below Polymarket to price in low-probability reversal scenarios.

Polymarket implies 88.5% probability of Democrats winning the House in 2026. Historically, the governing party loses ~26 House seats; the current slim Republican majority (~217–212) means a net swing of 5–7 seats flips control. Generic ballot shows Democrats ahead by 4–6 points. Risks: Republican gerrymandering (Texas, Florida, Georgia), high incumbency retention, Trump base turnout. Market anchor at 88.5% is the primary calibration; deviation would require a marked economic upswing and rising Trump approval.

Polymarket prices a Democratic House majority at 88% (>$9.7M traded, as of August 24, 2026). Historical patterns are clear: the president's party loses an average of 26 seats in midterms; Democrats need only ~20 seats to flip the majority. Given the financial and political costs of the Iran war, persistent inflation, and Trump's structural approval challenges, historical headwinds are strong. Polymarket anchor: 88%; own estimate: 85%.

Polymarket prices as of August 27, 2026 an 88% probability for Democrats in the US House race (Midterms, November 3, 2026). Metaculus sees 86.5%. Generic congressional ballot: Democrats with +5-7 point national lead. Historically, the president's party loses an average of 28 House seats in midterms; with Trump (Republican) in the White House, structural forces are clearly against the GOP. This prediction does not contradict the existing open prediction that Republicans retain the Senate – Polymarket views a divided Congress (R Senate/D House) as the most likely scenario (39% in the Balance of Power market). Minimal deviation from Polymarket anchor (88%) for remaining uncertainty over candidate quality and local races.

Polymarket prices Democrats winning the House at 89% (as of August 29, 2026). The generic congressional ballot shows Democrats +6–7 points in the RCP aggregate (August 2026). Republicans hold a razor-thin ~218-seat majority; Democrats need a net gain of just ~3 districts. President Trump's approval sits in the high 30s — classic wave-election conditions for the opposition. Silver Bulletin (Nate Silver) also models Democrats as House favourites. The Senate, by contrast, is nearly tied (Polymarket: Democrats 51%, Republicans 49%).

Polymarket prices a Democratic House victory at 88% (as of approx. 04.09.2026, market volume >$11M). Historical patterns favour the opposition in midterms; Trump's Republicans face a ~6-point Democratic generic ballot advantage. The House is considered a much more likely chamber flip than the Senate (Polymarket Senate: 51% for Democrats). This prediction addresses only the House, not the Senate (no overlap with the existing 'Sweep' entry). Own estimate: 85%.

Polymarket shows 86% probability for Democrats winning the House; $9M traded (as of 26 July 2026). Projections: Democrats 232 vs. Republicans 203 seats. Historical basis: the incumbent president's party loses ~26 seats on average in midterms (1946–2022); Republican majority after 2024 was only ~220–221 seats (buffer: ~3 seats). Kalshi shows similar Democratic lead; Senate race remains separate and closer. Structural risks: gerrymandering in GOP-controlled swing states. Slight downward deviation from Polymarket (86%) due to residual gerrymandering uncertainty.

Polymarket (as of July 14, 2026) gives Democrats an 85% chance of winning the House. Democrats lead the generic ballot by 5–6 points (June 2026). Historically, the incumbent's party loses ~25 House seats in midterms; Republicans hold ~220 seats, so a loss of 3–4 seats flips the majority. Headwinds for Republicans: PPI +6.2% YoY, Hormuz crisis, weak consumer sentiment. Risk: gerrymandering, possible economic recovery by November. Senate race is separate (Polymarket: 55% Republicans retain Senate).

Polymarket assigns 83–84% probability to a Democratic House majority (as of June/July 2026, active market). Historically, the president's party loses an average of 28 House seats in midterms (Roll Call analysis); the current Republican majority is only ~5 seats (c. 220–215). 270toWin and RaceToWH identify 40+ competitive districts, predominantly suburban. Democrats hold a 5–6 point generic ballot lead (as of June 2026). Dampening factors: gerrymandering, high GOP rural turnout, Iran crisis could briefly trigger a rally-around-the-flag effect.

Polymarket assigns 83% probability to Democratic control of the House as of July 12, 2026. The Democratic generic ballot lead stands at 5–6 points in June 2026 polls, consistent with historical midterm patterns under Republican presidents. Historically, the president's party loses an average of 26 House seats — Democrats would need fewer than ~20 net gains. Gerrymandering could dampen the effect. This scenario (Democrats in the House, Republicans in the Senate) would be a classic split Congress — consistent with the open platform prediction that Republicans retain the Senate.

Polymarket rates Democrats as clear favourites to control the House after the 2026 midterms (trade volume: USD 8.7M as of July 21, 2026). Generic-ballot polls show a 5–6-point Democratic lead (June 2026). Historically, the president's party loses ~26 House seats at midterms; Republicans hold a narrow majority and would need to limit losses to single digits. All 435 seats are up. Note: Democratic Senate majority is already a separate platform prediction; the House is a distinct contest.

The 2026 US midterm elections feature Class 3 Senate seats – many of which were won by Democrats in the 2020 Biden wave (including Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin). Republicans currently hold a Senate majority (~53:47). In mid-term cycles with opposition sentiment against the presidential party, Republicans historically perform well in Senate defense. Polymarket and Kalshi price Republicans to hold the Senate at approximately 60–65%. This prediction complements – without contradicting – the existing open forecast 'Democrats win House majority' (a separate chamber).

Polymarket shows Republicans at 58%, Kalshi at ~67% probability for retaining the Senate majority; weighted average: ~62%. Structural advantages: Republicans currently hold 53 of 100 Senate seats and only need to defend 22 of their 35 seats up for election, while Democrats would need a net gain of 4 seats. More Democrat-held seats in swing states (Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania) are at risk. Metaculus sees split Congress (R-Senate + D-House) as the most likely single scenario (49%). This prediction is compatible with the open prediction 'Democrats win the House.'

Metaculus (September 2026) gives Republicans ~59% probability of Senate majority; Polymarket and RealClearPolling confirm ~59–62%. Of 35 seats up for election, Republicans currently hold 53 vs. 47 Democrats. Democrats need a net gain of +4 seats — the Senate map favors Republicans (23 R seats vs. 12 D seats in play). Consistent with open Cassandra prediction 'Democrats win House with ≥6 net seats': a split Congress with Democratic House and Republican Senate is the most likely scenario (Metaculus: 49.2%).

Metaculus forecasts 59% probability for a Republican Senate majority in 2026. Democrats are simultaneously 86.5% favorites for the House (in existing Cassandra forecasts). The 2026 Senate map has several competitive seats in historically red states, giving Republicans a structural edge. Generic ballot shows Democrats +8 (Polymarket), but Senate maps rarely move 1:1 with national sentiment.

Kalshi prediction market: Democratic Senate majority at 46.5 cents, implying ~53.5% probability of Republican control. Polymarket (August 26, 2026): 'D Sweep' 48%, 'R Senate + D House' 39%, 'R Sweep' 12% – implying ~51% probability of Republican Senate combined. The Senate map heavily favors Republicans: 22 Republican vs. 13 Democratic seats are up for election; Democrats need a net gain of 4 seats while defending exposed seats (Michigan, Georgia, New Hampshire). 2026 special elections show ~+10pp Democratic swing vs. 2024, likely insufficient for the Senate.

Polymarket assigns a 56.5% probability to Republicans retaining the Senate majority at the US midterms on November 3, 2026. Of the 35 seats up, Republicans defend 22; Democrats need a net gain of 4 for a majority. Maine is the key swing state (Polymarket: 64% Democrats). Despite the Trump administration's budget reconciliation success (Senate passage early July 2026, VP Vance tie-breaking vote), the political landscape remains polarized; inflation (CPI 4.2% YoY) and Iran-conflict energy price pressure are headwinds. Polymarket sees 56.5% GOP; own calibration without deviation: 57%.

Polymarket shows 44% for 'Democrats win both chambers' (Sweep) and 41% for 'Republican Senate / Democratic House'. Scenarios with a Republican Senate total ~56% (41% split + ~15% Republican Sweep). Structurally, Democrats defend far more Senate seats in competitive swing states in 2026 (Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Arizona), while Republicans face limited seat exposure. Senate map historically favors the party defending fewer seats. Polymarket anchor implies ~56% for Republican Senate retention.

Michigan elects a new governor on November 3, 2026; incumbent Gretchen Whitmer (D) steps down after two terms (Michigan term limit). Open-seat race in a classic swing state: Trump won Michigan in 2016 (+0.2%), Biden in 2020 (+2.8%), Whitmer (D) won decisively in 2022 (+10.5%). The structural midterm advantage of the opposition party (Democrats under President Trump) and Michigan's strong urban base (Detroit, Ann Arbor) favor the Democratic candidate.

Democrats defend many Class 2 seats won in 2020 (Gary Peters/MI, John Hickenlooper/CO, Mark Warner/VA, Jeanne Shaheen/NH). Strongest Republican individual race: Texas (Paxton ~58%). Elevated oil prices (Brent ~USD 97, 24.7.2026), inflation concerns, and tariff burdens create a mixed midterm environment.

Historical trend: the incumbent president's party loses ~26 seats on average in midterms. Republican majority after 2024 is slim (~220 seats). Economic pressures from tariffs, elevated energy prices (Hormuz crisis, TTF +29%), potential recession (US Q2 2026 GDP below 2% per existing forecast), and budget fights should swing towards Democrats. No current Polymarket value for House control available; own estimate 53% for Democrats based on historical patterns and economic indicators. Distinct from existing Senate prediction (Dems win ≥51 Senate seats).
