CLAIM · POLITICAL RISK & GOVERNANCE
“The number of House seats won by Democrats in the 3 November 2026 election.”
This claim comes from Midterm Ledger 2026: control, the close seats, and what a split Congress does to policy risk, published on 6 October 2026, and entered the ledger on 6 October 2026. The firm locked a range of 214 to 242 seats with a central estimate of 228; a range item is scored by whether the published figure lands inside the band, outside the Brier rule. It resolves by 4 December 2026, only against a dated public source.
