The map

Safe R Safe D I = green

Prices are live Polymarket odds for every 2026 race the exchange lists, refreshed each morning. Shading follows the Wikipedia election-atlas palette — the same blues and reds you'd see on a results map, but driven by percent odds instead of vote share. The House view is a cartogram — one equal-size hex per district, grouped by state, so small urban seats stay visible.

The campaign wire

The Hill's campaign desk, Politico, NYT Politics, NPR, NBC News, Roll Call, RCP (all midterm-filtered), and Sabato's Crystal Ball ratings notes.
