NPR published an analysis of the 2026 midterm battle for the US House of Representatives, framing the race around toss-up districts, triage of limited campaign resources, and priority targets. With neither party clearly favored, strategists are weighing which Republican-held seats Democrats can realistically flip and which vulnerable incumbents both sides will defend as Election Day approaches.

Why now: The 2026 midterms are near and control of the House remains genuinely competitive, drawing attention to which seats will decide it.
