The 2026 United States House of Representatives elections will be held on November 3, 2026, to elect representatives from all 435 congressional districts across each of the 50 U.S. states. Five of the six non-voting delegates from the District of Columbia and the inhabited U.S. territories will also be elected (Puerto Rico's delegate, the Resident Commissioner, serves four year terms and was last elected in 2024). Numerous federal, state, and local elections, including the 2026 U.S. Senate elections, will also be held on this date.

Election ratings Latest published ratings for competitive seats Several sites and individuals publish ratings of competitive seats. The seats listed below are considered competitive (not "safe" or "solid") by at least one of the rating groups. These ratings are based upon factors such as the strength of the incumbent (if the incumbent is running for re-election), the strength of the candidates, and the partisan history of the district (the Cook Partisan Voting Index (CPVI) is one example of this metric). Each rating describes the likelihood of a given outcome in the election.

In total, there are 435 seats in the House of Representatives. 218 are needed for a majority while 290 seats are needed for a two-thirds supermajority (if all members are sitting and voting).

Most election ratings use: Tossup: no advantage Tilt (sometimes used): very slight advantage Lean: significant, but not overwhelming advantage Likely: strong, but not certain advantage Safe or Solid: outcome is nearly certain

The following are the latest published ratings for competitive seats.
