انتخابات مجلس الشيوخ الأمريكي 2026، من المزمع عقدها في 3 نوفمبر 2026، حيث سيتم التنافس على 33 مقعداً من أصل 100 في مجلس الشيوخ، في انتخابات اعتيادية. في هذه الانتخابات، سيختار الناخبون مرشحين لولاية انتخابية مدتها ست سنوات تبدأ في 3 يناير 2027 وتنتهي في 3 يناير 2033.

ينقسم أعضاء مجلس الشيوخ إلى ثلاثة درجات وتكون ولاياتهم متداخلة، بحيث تُنتخب درجة مختلفة كل سنتين. أُنتخب أعضاء مجلس الشيوخ من الدرجة الثانية آخر مرة عام 2020 وهم جاهزون للانتخابات عام 2026. مع انتخاب جون ثون كزعيم المؤتمر الجمهوري، ستكون هذه هي السنة الانتخابية الأولى منذ 2006 التي يتنافس فيها الجمهوريون في مجلس الشيوخ وهم ليسوا تحت قيادة متش مكونل. التجمع الديمقراطي بمجلس الشيوخ يقوده تشك شومر منذ عام 2017.

تحدد موعد لإجراء انتخابات خاصة في أوهايو وفلوريدا، بعد استقالة جيه دي ڤانس ليصبح نائباً للرئيس، واستقالة ماركو روبيو ليصبح وزيراً للخارجية.

خسر اثنان من أعضاء مجلس الشيوخ الحاليين -بيل كاسيدي من لويزيانا وجون كورنن من تكساس - إعادة الترشيح في الانتخابات التمهيدية لكل منهما. آخر عضو في مجلس الشيوخ خسر إعادة ترشيحه كان رتشارد لوگار في 2012،[ج] وآخر مرة خسر فيها العديد من أعضاء مجلس الشيوخ المنتخبين إعادة ترشيحهم في الانتخابات التمهيدية كانت عام 2010.[ح] آخر عضو في مجلس الشيوخ لم يحتل المركز الثالث في الانتخابات التمهيدية قبل كاسيدي كان هاتي كارواي عام 1944.[1][خ]

التكوين الحزبي

جميع مقاعد مجلس الشيوخ الـ 33 من الدرجة 2 ومقعدين الدرجة 3 جاهزة للانتخابات عام 2026. وتتكون الدرجة 2 حالياً من 20 جمهورياً و13 ديمقراطياً.[2] يدافع الديمقراطيون عن مقعدين في الولايات التي فاز بها دونالد ترمپ عام 2024، في كلتا الحالتين بأقل من 3 نقاط مئوية: مشيگن، حيث لا يترشح شاغل المنصب گاري پيترز لإعادة انتخابه؛ وجورجيا، حيث شاغل المنصب هو جون أوسوف. انتخبت مشيگن الديموقراطية إليسا سلوتكن لمجلس الشيوخ عام 2024 بنسبة 0.3 نقطة مئوية. لم يكن لدى جورجيا انتخابات لمجلس الشيوخ عام 2024، على الرغم من أنه في انتخابات مجلس الشيوخ الأخيرة، عام 2022، فاز الديمقراطي رفاييل وارنوك بثلاث نقاط في جولة الإعادة.[3][4]

يمثل خمسة من أعضاء مجلس الشيوخ الديمقراطيين الحاليين الولايات التي فازت بها كمالا هاريس بهامش من رقم واحد عام 2024: ولاية نيو هامپشر جين شاهين، ولاية منسوتا تينا سميث، ولاية ڤرجينيا مارك وارنر، ولاية نيوجرزي كوري بوكر، وولاية نيومكسيكو بن راي لوجان.[3] لن تترشح شاهين وسميث لإعادة انتخابهما.[5] يُعد مقعد سوزان كولنز في ولاية مين المقعد الوحيد الذي يدافع عنه جمهوري في ولاية فازت بها كمالا هاريس عام 2025.[6] الجمهوري توم تيليس من كارولينا الشمالية سيتقاعد[7] من مجلس الشيوخ في ولاية فاز بها ترمپ بفارق ضئيل عام 2024.[3]

تُعتبر خريطة مجلس الشيوخ 2026 مواتية للجمهوريين، على الرغم من أن الديمقراطيين يدافعون عن 13 مقعداً والجمهوريين عن 22 مقعداً. تُصنّف معظم جهات التقييم مقعدين يشغلهما الجمهوريون على أنهما شديدا التنافس، ومقعدين آخرين على أنهما متوسطا التنافس. في المقابل، يتعين على الديمقراطيين الفوز بأربعة مقاعد على الأقل لتحقيق الأغلبية، مع الدفاع عن مقعدين شديدي التأثر ومقعدين آخرين يُعتبران متوسطي التأثر.[8][9][10] وقد وجد خبراء استطلاعات الرأي أن فرص الديمقراطيين في قلب موازين مجلس الشيوخ تتحسن، ويعود ذلك جزئياً إلى المرشحين المستقلين في ولايات مثل نبراسكا ومونتانا، فضلاً عن نتائج الانتخابات التمهيدية في ولايات مثل أيوا وتكساس.[11]

التغير في التكوين

يمثل كل مربع واحداً من المقاعد المائة في مجلس الشيوخ الأمريكي. "د#" هو عضو مجلس الشيوخ الديمقراطي، و"م#" هو عضو مجلس الشيوخ المستقل، و"ج#" هو عضو مجلس الشيوخ الجمهوري. وهم مرتبون بحيث ينفصل الحزبان وتكون الأغلبية واضحة بعبور الوسط.

التقاعد

اعتباراً من مايو 2026، أعلن أحد عشر عضواً في مجلس الشيوخ – أربعة ديمقراطيين وسبعة جمهوريين – أنهم لن يسعوا لإعادة انتخابهم. هذا هو أكبر عدد في دورة انتخابية واحدة منذ 1996، عندما لم يترشح 13 عضواً مرة أخرى.[د][13]

التوقعات

نشرت عدة مواقع ونقاد سياسيون توقعات للمقاعد التنافسية. أخذت هذه التوقعات في الاعتبار عوامل مثل قوة الشاغل الحالي للمنصب (إذا كان شاغل الوظيفة يترشح لإعادة الانتخاب) والمرشحين الآخرين، والميل الحزبي للولاية، والذي ينعكس جزئياً في تصنيف مؤشر التصويت الحزبي للولاية. تقوم التوقعات عادةً بتعيين تصنيفات لكل مقعد، مما يشير إلى الميزة المتوقعة التي يتمتع بها الحزب في الفوز بهذا المقعد. يستخدم معظم المتوقين بالانتخابات:


  • "سباق متكافئ": لا توجد أفضلية
  • "أفضلية طفيفة للغاية" (يستخدمه بعض المتوقعين): أفضلية ليست بقوة "الأفضلية الطفيفة"
  • "أفضلية طفيفة": فرصة ضئيلة
  • "مرجح": فرصة كبيرة، لكن يمكن التغلب عليها
  • "آمن" أو "مضمون": فرصة شبه مؤكدة للفوز

Potentially competitive seats

These are seats that polling and predictions currently have listed as at least somewhat close.

Republican incumbents

Maine is the only one of the four Senate races expected to be the most competitive that has a Republican incumbent (Susan Collins).[41] Maine's 2026 race is regarded as competitive due to the state's blue lean, but Collins previously kept her seat during cycles favorable to Democrats nationally (2008 and 2020). Former deputy secretary of the Maryland Department of the Environment David Costello[42] and military veteran Graham Platner are running for the Democratic nomination in Maine.[43][44] North Carolina's race is also considered competitive, since the state has a slight right lean, and incumbent Thom Tillis, who is retiring,[22] has never won an outright majority of votes in his races.[45][46] In July 2025, former Governor Roy Cooper announced his candidacy for the open seat.[47] The same month, former RNC Chairman Michael Whatley entered the race after Tillis declined to seek reelection and was immediately endorsed by President Donald Trump.[48] Cooper won the Democratic nomination in 2026.[49]

Incumbents in Ohio (Jon Husted) and Alaska (Dan Sullivan) are also expected to have competitive races against former U.S. senator Sherrod Brown and former U.S. representative Mary Peltola, respectively[41]. Both Brown and Peltola lost reelection in 2024. Although Louisiana is considered a safely red state, Bill Cassidy was challenged by Louisiana State Treasurer John Fleming and U.S. representative Julia Letlow and lost the primary election, marking the first time an elected incumbent senator had lost their primary in any state since 2012 in Indiana.[ج] After that, John Cornyn lost the Texas Senate Republican primary election to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who is expected to have a competitive race against State Representative James Talarico. Joni Ernst, the incumbent in Iowa, is not seeking reelection.[16]

The incumbent in Nebraska, Pete Ricketts, could also face a competitive race against independent Dan Osborn, who ran against Republican Deb Fischer in the Class I race in 2024. Osborn was the most successful challenger of a Republican-held seat during the 2024 election cycle, losing by only six points, compared to Kamala Harris's loss by 20 points in Nebraska in the concurrent presidential election. Democrats did not contest the Class I seat in 2024 and are not expected to do so in 2026. In August 2025, the Nebraska Democratic Party endorsed Osborn.[50]

Democratic incumbents

The other half of the Senate races expected to be the most competitive are those in Georgia and Michigan.[41] Georgia's incumbent Democratic senator (Jon Ossoff) is expected to be in a highly competitive race, though not as competitive as it could have been, since Republican Governor Brian Kemp declined to run for the seat.[51] Ossoff narrowly beat former Senator David Perdue in a 2021 runoff to win his first term.[52] In Michigan, senator Gary Peters has announced his retirement, setting a scramble for the state with an even PVI score.[53]

The seats in Minnesota (vacated by Tina Smith), and New Hampshire (vacated by Jeanne Shaheen) are expected to be only marginally close races—especially New Hampshire, with popular former Republican governor Chris Sununu declining to run.[30][54] Sununu's brother, former Senator John E. Sununu, announced a run for the Senate seat he lost to Shaheen in 2008.[55] Former United States Senator from Massachusetts and U.S. Ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa Scott Brown has announced his candidacy. Brown was the Republican nominee in 2014, narrowly losing the general election to Shaheen.[56]

The Republican primary took place on May 19. The candidates included former Navy SEAL Jared Hudson,[117] state Attorney General Steve Marshall,[118] and U.S. Representative Barry Moore.[119] No candidate won 50% of the vote, so the two top vote-getters, Hudson and Moore, have advanced to a runoff on June 16.[120]

Sullivan will be joined in the primary by Republicans Dustin Darden, Gerald Heikes, Fred Grauberger, and Richard Benedict Mayers, all of whom are perennial candidates.[124] Also running as a Republican is former U.S. Forest Service employee Dan J.
