Florida's 2026 midterm elections take place Nov. 3, with polls open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. statewide. Voters must present a current, valid photo ID with a signature; those without matching signatures need a secondary ID, and voters lacking acceptable ID or unverified registration may cast a provisional ballot, counted if documentation is supplied within two days. Mail-in ballots must reach election offices or drop boxes by 7 p.m. on Election Day, as postmarks no longer count. The registration deadline was Oct. 5.

In Ohio, voters cast ballots in a closely watched governor's race alongside all 99 state House seats and 17 state Senate seats; Cuyahoga County's 269 polling locations opened smoothly, with more than 1.73 million Ohioans having already voted early statewide. Georgia also held Election Day voting Nov. 3, with polls open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and anyone in line by closing guaranteed a ballot. Georgians chose a U.S. senator, all 14 U.S. House members, governor, and other statewide and local offices, with unofficial results expected after polls close.

Early voting opened in Georgia for the 2026 midterm election, running through Oct. 30, with Oct. 23 as the deadline to request an absentee ballot. Nearly every major statewide office is open, with new officeholders guaranteed in most races. The headline contest pits Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms against Republican Rick Jackson for governor, while incumbent Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff faces Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Collins in a closely watched Senate race.

Down-ballot races include lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, agriculture, insurance and labor commissioner, plus two Public Service Commission seats, congressional and legislative contests. Voters will also decide three constitutional amendments covering conservation-use acreage limits, nonpartisan election of probate judges, and dedicated funding for 911 systems. Turnout data is tracked through the secretary of state's Election Data Hub. The races carry significant implications for prediction markets given Georgia's status as a key battleground state.
