Decision Desk HQ predicts that Democrats will win a majority in the US House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections, according to a report carried by Nieuws.nl. The forecast points to a change in control of the chamber, but is not an election result: voting is still months away.
The organisation collects election data. Nieuws.nl, citing the Associated Press and Reuters, noted that the president’s party usually loses seats in midterm elections. Donald Trump’s Republicans currently hold the White House; the report did not give figures or explain the model behind Decision Desk HQ’s prediction.
