Same inequality, new century. We're keeping score.

We’re bringing Thin Gold back online in phases. Some sections are still being checked and will return as each one is ready; our goal is to be fully back before the November 3 midterms.

Washington 3rd District is the state's headline race: rated Lean D by Cook Political Report.

Every seat in the delegation below, in district order. A colored band across the top of a cell means a rater has made a claim about that race. A cell with no band is a settled seat, tinted by its 2024 presidential margin, which is a measured past result and not a 2026 forecast.

No Senate race is in Thin Gold's tracked inventory for Washington this cycle. This is an assumption, not a statutory fact: our inventory not carrying a race may mean no seat is up in Washington, or it may mean our own coverage has a gap, and we cannot currently tell those two apart.

Settled seats are tinted by their 2024 presidential-vote baseline as of October 3, 2026, sourced from The Downballot, and carry no band, because a baseline is a measured past result and never a rating.

10 seats on the 2026 ballot: 10 House seats. Ratings added October 12, 2026. A seat counts by the first rater with a live rating ( Cook Political Report , then Sabato’s Crystal Ball, then Split Ticket, then FiftyPlusOne).

  • Not rated 0

In play: 1 leaning D.

Lean against the nation

No statewide 2024 baseline is on record for Washington, because neither a Senate nor a governor race here carries one yet.

Of 10 House districts with a baseline, 7 voted more Democratic than the nation in 2024 and 3 more Republican.

House delegation, projected

Our model expects Democrats to win about 8 of 10 House seats here (run of October 18, 2026). Expected value across district win probabilities, not a call on any one seat.

The current party split of the delegation is not shown: seat-holder party is not yet a sourced field in our data.

Washington has 39 counties. 39 have at least one indicator available; a county with no value for an indicator is hatched and marked "Not yet available", never estimated.

What the delegation says

What Washington is worth

Washington's stake in House control

1of 20

One of the 20 seats that decide House control this cycle sits in Washington's delegation. The rest of the delegation is settled ground.

Competitive = rated Toss-Up or Lean by the crediting rater · as of October 18, 2026

Rating and model, side by side

Model output from our win-odds simulation, under calibration review. Methodology

U.S. Senate in Washington

Every rater we carry, with its own date. Candidates, incumbent, poll and forecast sit under each rating.

No Senate race is in Thin Gold's tracked inventory for Washington this cycle.

This is an assumption, not a statutory fact: our inventory not carrying a race may mean no seat is up in Washington, or it may mean our own coverage has a gap, and we cannot currently tell those two apart.

Governor of Washington

Ratings, candidates and incumbent where we hold them; every gap is marked with its reason.

Our inventory carries no governor race for Washington this cycle. That may mean none is on the ballot, or that our coverage has a gap; we cannot yet tell the two apart.
