The November 3, 2026 federal election date for regularly scheduled Senate and House contests follows 2 U.S.C. § 1 and 2 U.S.C. § 7. This national date does not establish an election date for U.S. Virgin Islands. State and local officials administer elections differently. The national route is the U.S. Election Assistance Commission state directory, with registration guidance at Vote.gov.
