CBS News Poll Shows Democrats Maintaining Lead for House Majority Amid Economic Concerns

A recent CBS News/YouGov poll indicates that Democrats are maintaining their lead in the race for a House majority, currently projected to secure 229 seats. The survey, conducted between October 21-23, 2026, highlights continued voter concern about inflation and the economy. While the Democratic lead has been stable, it has not expanded, suggesting no growing "wave" as of today. The poll also notes that Republicans are more likely to believe in illegal voting by non-citizens in federal elections.
