Ohio U.S. Senate Special Election 2026

Ohio chatbots still send voters to Sherrod Brown for Senate, and nothing new moved the race today

Chatbots picked Democrat Sherrod Brown most often for Ohio's special Senate race, at about 45 percent, ahead of Republican incumbent Jon Husted at about 36 percent. That order matches the betting markets, which give Brown roughly a 57.5 percent chance to win against Husted's 42.5 percent, and recent polling, which puts Brown at 46.7 percent of the vote to Husted's 43 percent. None of the three readings moved much today. This has been the picture for over a week, with Libertarian Bill Redpath still rating higher among chatbots, around 15.6 percent, than in polls, where he sits near 2 percent.

Alaska U.S. Senate Race 2026

Alaska chatbots still pick Sullivan for Senate, even as betting markets lean hard toward Peltola.

Asked who should win Alaska's Senate race, chatbots picked Dan Sullivan about 54 percent of the time, ahead of Democrat Mary Peltola at 41 percent. Betting markets see it the other way, giving Peltola a 72.5 percent chance to win against Sullivan at 26 percent. Recent polling has them close, Peltola at 43.7 percent and Sullivan at 42.7 percent. This gap between what the chatbots say and what markets expect has held for weeks now, with little movement today in any of the three readings. The primary, 40 days ago, put Peltola first and Sullivan second among those who advanced to November.

Michigan U.S. Senate Race 2026

Michigan chatbots still call the Senate race closer than betting markets do

Chatbots asked who Michigan voters should back for U.S. Senate split the field almost evenly, giving Democrat Abdul El-Sayed about 50 percent and Republican Mike Rogers about 46 percent. Betting markets see it as less competitive, giving El-Sayed a 71 percent chance to win against 29 percent for Rogers. Recent polling from Suffolk University and others puts El-Sayed at 47.3 percent of the vote and Rogers at 43.7 percent, closer to the chatbots picture than the markets one. This gap between the chatbots and the markets has held steady for more than a week, with little movement in any lens today.

Iowa U.S. Senate Race 2026

Iowa chatbots still split the Senate race almost evenly while betting markets lean toward Hinson

Chatbots asked who Iowa voters should pick for U.S. Senate put Democrat Josh Turek at 46.5 percent and Republican Ashley Hinson at 43 percent, a near tie that has held for weeks. Betting markets see it differently, giving Hinson a 57.5 percent chance to win against 42.5 percent for Turek. Recent polling, including Marist College's survey from September 20, also shows a close contest, with Turek at 44.7 percent and Hinson at 44 percent. Libertarian Thomas Laehn draws 7.8 percent from the chatbots but barely registers in polls at 2.5 percent. Nothing moved much today, so the same gap between the chatbots and the markets persists heading into the general election on November 3.

Alaska State Senate District O Race 2026

Six weeks after Alaska's District O primary, chatbots still rank Bauer over Sheldon even though voters put Sheldon ahead

All three candidates in State Senate District O advanced to November, since Alaska's top four primary lets them all through. Chatbots today pick incumbent Republican George Rauscher first, at 47.1 percent, matching what voters did on August 18, when he took 38.8 percent. But the chatbots still rank Democrat Peter Bauer, at 27.8 percent, ahead of Republican Ryan Sheldon, at 16 percent, even though voters gave Sheldon 30.6 percent, tied with Bauer for second. That gap between the panel and the actual count has held for weeks with no sign of closing. There is no live betting market or recent poll on this race to check the chatbots against for November.
