Election Day 2026 is Tuesday, November 3

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA viewer on bbn. live asks, with two question marks, is Election Day tomorrow?

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYes. It's Tuesday, November third, per Britannica, and it's two-ten Eastern on Monday, so it is tomorrow, not today.

3. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorTomorrow? I've been watching attack ads since the spring. I assumed it happened and nobody told me.

4. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFederal law sets it as the Tuesday after the first Monday in November in even years.

5. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAll four hundred thirty-five House seats, thirty-five Senate seats and thirty-nine governors.

6. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThe Tuesday after the first Monday. So if Monday oversleeps, the whole republic just waits in the hall.

7. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAlso, many states had early and absentee voting for weeks. Some people have already voted.

8. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSo for some people it was today, weeks ago. The calendar has given up, Hank. Tell me it's over.

9. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTuesday.

10.
