What to Watch
🗳 Voting this week- Delaware primary — Tuesday, September 15 (TOMORROW)
Delaware Sets September Primary Date
Delaware has scheduled its primary for September 15, 2026, covering both its Senate and House contests. This is an early marker on the 2026 calendar, and it will be the first test of candidate fields in a state that rarely draws national attention but will offer an early data point on turnout patterns.
Governor's Races to Watch
Ten governor's races carry competitive ratings heading into the coming week. The Nevada governor's race stands alone as a toss-up, making it the marquee contest to track. Several other races are rated Lean R, including Florida, Georgia, Kansas, and Ohio, while Iowa, New Mexico, and Oregon lean Democratic. Arizona and Michigan are both rated Likely D. Movement in any of the closer-rated states would be worth flagging in the days ahead.
