They include GOP-held districts with razor-thin margins, a few Democratic seats that could flip to Republicans and several races in California and other Western states that still need to count ballots.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a look at the congressional races that CBS News has not yet projected, including where the results stand:<\/p>\n<h2>Senate Toss-Ups<\/h2>\n<p>Democrats are set to enter next year with at least 54 Senate seats, compared to Republicans&#8217; 44. Two Senate races still haven&#8217;t been called \u2014 one has long been viewed as a battleground, and the other came out of nowhere.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alaska Senate<\/strong>: Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan is running for reelection against Democrat Mary Peltola, a razor-thin race <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/alaska-senate-two-dan-sullivans-mary-peltola\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">rocked by a last-minute scandal<\/a><\/span>\u00a0over how <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/daniel-j-sullivan-left-alaska-hometown-senate-election\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">another Dan Sullivan<\/a><\/span> got on the ballot.

If no candidate is the top choice of a majority of voters, the last-place candidate is eliminated and the counting process moves to a second round. Final results aren&#8217;t expected until 15 days after Election Day. Both the Sullivan and Peltola campaigns have argued they have the upper hand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mississippi Senate<\/strong>: The race between GOP Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith and Democrat Scott Colom was not widely expected to be competitive, but <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/mississippi-senate-race-results-2026-midterms\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">it remains a toss-up<\/a><\/span>. State officials say thousands of mail ballots are outstanding and can legally arrive within five days of the election, and there are an unknown number of &#8220;affidavit&#8221; ballots from voters whose eligibility needs to be checked. Colom and Hyde-Smith have both predicted that they&#8217;ll emerge victorious.<\/p>\n<h2>Democrats on Defense<\/h2>\n<p>The dozens of red districts that Democrats flipped were the primary story of Tuesday night, but a few Republican House candidates are still trying to swim against the tide, either due to redistricting or a favorable local political makeup.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maine&#8217;s 2nd District<\/strong>: This red, pro-Trump district is one of Republicans&#8217; top opportunities to flip a House seat, after moderate Democratic Rep. Jared Golden&#8217;s decision not to run for reelection set the stage for a contest between former GOP Gov. Paul LePage and Democrat Matt Dunlap. Even though <a href=\"https:\/\/wgme.com\/news\/local\/matt-dunlap-concedes-in-maines-2nd-district-race-ranked-choice-voting-tabulation-republican-gov-paul-lepage-democrat-matt-dunlap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dunlap conceded<\/a>, officials in Maine say the race\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.maine.gov\/sos\/news\/maine-secretary-states-office-announces-congressional-district-2-race-will-proceed-ranked\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">will proceed<\/a> to a ranked-choice tabulation because LePage was just shy of the 50% mark. The tabulation will start Nov. 9.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Florida&#8217;s 9th District<\/strong>: This was one of four districts that Florida Republicans tilted to the right in a pre-midterm redistricting campaign \u2014 and the only one that hasn&#8217;t yet been projected as a Democratic win. Democratic Rep. Darren Soto is trying to stave off a challenge from Republican Dan Green.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Louisiana&#8217;s 6th District<\/strong>: This formerly blue-leaning, majority-Black district was <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/louisiana-redistricting-new-congressional-map-advances\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">redrawn<\/a><\/span> after the <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/supreme-court-louisiana-congressional-map-voting-rights-act\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Supreme Court voided<\/a><\/span> the state&#8217;s maps, finding that mapmakers relied too heavily on race and narrowing the Voting Rights Act. It&#8217;s now significantly redder, but since no candidate is close to a majority under the state&#8217;s &#8220;jungle&#8221; primary system, it could go to a runoff next month.<\/p>\n<h2>GOP-Held Battlegrounds<\/h2>\n<p>Several races held by Republicans still don&#8217;t have projections \u2014 including in districts that Democrats are hoping to flip.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colorado&#8217;s 4th District<\/strong>: Firebrand Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert is running against Democrat Eileen Laubacher.

Eli Crane is running against Democrat Jonathan Nez.<\/p>\n<h2>Please hold&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>Results could take a while in some House districts, either because ballots still need to be counted or because of runoffs. In some California districts, both candidates belong to the same party, so they don&#8217;t have any implications for the makeup of Congress.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alaska&#8217;s At-Large District<\/strong>: Republican Rep.
