Americans are heading to polling stations across the United States on Tuesday, November 3, for the 2026 midterm elections, which will determine control of Congress for the final two years of President Donald Trump’s term.

In Fairfax, Virginia, voters filled out ballots, checked in at polling stations and cast their votes as Election Day voting got underway.

Polling stations are opening at different times across the country due to time zone differences, with voting continuing in some western states yet to open their polls.

Millions of Americans had already cast their ballots ahead of Election Day, with early voting turnout on pace to surpass that of the previous midterm elections.
