Who Is Funding 2026 US Midterms? Elon Musk Leads List Of 20 Biggest Donors

What's behind this

During live coverage of the 2026 U.S. midterm elections, President Trump claimed a 99% approval rating and said the results would be ‘better than you think.’ The elections, described as a broad referendum on his presidency, involve all 435 House seats, 35 Senate seats and governorships in 36 states, with roughly 210 million registered voters. While voter sentiment is reported as shifting against the Republican party, the current outlook shows narrow Republican majorities in both chambers. Counting may be delayed by ballot processing and ranked‑choice voting, and key states could determine control of Congress and the governorships.
