[Citation policy](https://electionflips.com/citation) Election Flips is a personal side project of Fezz, run under the name Threat Vector Management. It does not represent, and is not endorsed by, any employer, past or present. Unofficial results from the November 3, 2026 election, rechecked on November 5, 2026. Updated counts run through about 1 p.m. Eastern time November 5, and many still date from November 4. ## County The totals above count counties. The number on a state tile counts named county offices, seats or board majorities flipped to Democrats. Sample of 254 counties in 43 states, out of about 3,100. 43 show a flip to Democrats, 10 a likely one. No Republican county flip found, after searching for them directly. Many holds come from one state-by-state newsletter, Critical Report, dated Nov. 4, and many of its races were still pending. Not found: Kent and Oakland commissions (Michigan), Rensselaer (New York), and most rural counties. Pennsylvania has no county results here, because its county offices vote in odd years (from general knowledge, not checked for this page). Connecticut and Rhode Island have no county governments (from general knowledge). ## City & town Mayors, towns, villages and townships. Most races are nonpartisan, so most changes are not party flips. 267 places in 27 states. There are tens of thousands of towns in the U.S., so this is a small sample. Includes all 22 top-100 mayor races, every city the U.S. Conference of Mayors lists with a Nov. 3 or earlier vote, and towns and villages found in local reports. Most Conference of Mayors rows name a winner with no incumbent or party check. 33 places have no winner yet or go to a runoff. Left out: about 135 rows dated after Nov. 3, mostly California, and Saipan, which is not on this map. Odd-year states, such as Ohio and Pennsylvania, did not elect most town officials this year (from general knowledge). ## Courts State high courts and statewide appellate seats, with local judges on each state's map. No high-court majority flip found. 28 states with a result. 3 not found: Alaska, Maryland, Wyoming. South Dakota has one retention vote, but its justice was not named in the pages read. Nebraska's vote was canceled after a retirement. No 2026 election was found in other states. ## Governor 36 races. 5 flips to Democrats, 0 to Republicans, 2 uncalled. State Capital Lobbyist at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time Nov. 5: 28 Democrats, 20 Republicans. All 36 placed. Kansas and Alaska are the only uncalled races. ## Statewide offices 95 statewide offices besides governor in 21 states: 15 flipped to Democrats, 7 moving to Democrats, not final, 48 held by the same party, 25 not called or no result found. Lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer, auditor, comptroller, superintendent and commissioner offices, plus public service and utility commissions. Results are unofficial until each state finishes its count. Each result says whether it rests on the state election office or on two independent news reports. Read from the state election office: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Ohio, South Carolina. Two independent news reports agree: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Nevada, Texas. Some offices still missing in: Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, Wisconsin. No statewide office besides governor on the ballot: North Carolina, Washington. Not checked, or nothing passed the checks: Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Vermont, West Virginia, Wyoming. ## US Senate 35 races. 7 flips to Democrats, 0 to Republicans, 2 more Democratic leads. Counts: 54 Democrats, 44 Republicans, 2 uncalled. All 35 placed. Alaska and Mississippi are uncalled. Democrats lead both on first choices, but an early ranked-choice estimate has Sullivan ahead in Alaska. ## US House 40 reported flips to Democrats, 7 more Democratic leads, 3 reported flips to Republicans. NBC News at 11:36 a.m. Eastern time Nov. 5: 35 flips to Democrats, 1 to Republicans, 41 races uncalled, Democrats projected at 259 seats. Every flip that could be named, including concessions and local reports, so this count runs above NBC's. Leads can still reverse: the 2,513-vote lead in Colorado's 4th has been shrinking. Counts come from Decision Desk HQ pages, each stamped with its own time, and most are from Nov. 4. ## State senate 3 chambers flipped to Democrats, Arizona leaning Democratic, Alaska uncalled. Georgia stayed Republican. No Republican flip. 43 chambers up. Other tiles are holds per MultiState at 6:45 p.m. Eastern time Nov. 4. Seat counts are from State Capital Lobbyist at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time Nov. 5. ## State house 6 chambers flipped to Democrats, Arizona and Georgia leaning Democratic, Alaska uncalled. No Republican flip. 45 chambers up. Other tiles are holds per MultiState at 6:45 p.m. Eastern time Nov. 4. Seat counts are from State Capital Lobbyist at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time Nov. 5. ## Data centers No statewide measure reached a ballot in 2026; Ohio's ban is now aimed at 2027. No school or special district vote found. This comes from Ballotpedia's list, plus 8 votes it did not list, from the Maine Monitor and other reports. It covers votes by the public and failed attempts to get one, not council votes, recalls or candidate races. Results are unofficial, and town types come from how each place is listed. ## Ballot measures 25 measures in 16 states: 15 passed, 4 failed, 6 not called yet. Yes-or-no questions, not party results. Statewide yes-or-no questions on the November 3, 2026 ballot, listed first by how many people each one affects and how much national attention it drew. These are not party results. A question is marked passed or failed only when the state election office, or two independent reports that agree, say so; anything else says not called. Counting goes on in several states, so shares can still move.
