2026 Election Outlook: Polling Forecasts for the U.S. Midterm Elections with G. Elliot Morris

Sep 16, 2026

On September 16, The Capitol Forum held the first conference call in our new 2026 Election Outlook series with our polling partner, G. Elliott Morris, founder and CEO of Wave Polling and Research and author of the Substack newsletter Strength In Numbers.

The discussion focused on what voters say they want from the political parties, how concerns about higher prices are shaping public opinion, how the political landscape has changed since January 2025, and what current polling and forecasting suggest about the races for control of the House and Senate.
