On Tuesday 3 November 2026, voters across the United States go to the polls in the Midterm Elections. 

This is a consequential moment in any US presidency: the point at which a president can consolidate or lose support in Congress – in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. Growing support can create a smoother path for ambitious legislation and help secure a presidential legacy. Losing support can lead to two years of a ”lame duck” presidency and jeopardise further legislation. 

Just 10 Days before polling day, this seminar offers a timely opportunity to understand what is at stake.
