Midterms: These are the races to watch in the US midterm elections
50 states, hundreds of races and the big question: Will the majority switch in one or both chambers of the US Congress? Where to look more closely on election night.
The US midterm elections will determine the fate of hundreds of congressional seats, 35 Senate seats, and numerous governor positions. The outcome will largely depend on a few closely contested races, particularly in the Senate where Republicans currently hold 53 seats and Democrats hold 45. Key Senate races to watch include Michigan, where Democrat Abdul El-Sayed is running against Republican Mike Rogers, Texas, where James Talarico is challenging Republican Ken Paxton, and Alaska, where Dan J. Sullivan and Democrat Mary Peltola are competing against incumbent Republican Dan S. Sullivan. The Democrats are also eyeing governor positions, with key races in Ohio and Wisconsin.
