This article is the third chapter of a series dedicated to explaining the United States midterm elections. The series aims to inform a non-American audience about how these elections work.
The text indicates that the U.S. will hold midterm elections on November 3, 2026. Midterm elections occur halfway through the presidential term and include elections for Congress, including the Senate.
The article proposes to answer three fundamental questions: what is a midterm election, why are these elections important, and what is likely to happen in these elections.
This series of articles seeks to provide accessible explanations about the American electoral process, specifically aimed at readers who are not familiar with the United States political system.
