AI and the 2026 U.S. Midterm Elections
The upcoming election in November is our chance to realign AI policy with society’s best interests. Our election guides have the information voters and candidates need to make the most of this opportunity.
The upcoming 2026 midterm election is a defining moment for AI polcy. AI has become embedded in our daily lives, but most candidates haven’t had the bandwidth to understand how AI works, much less how to regulate it.
As a nonpartisan educator on technology and society, our job is to equip candidates and voters with what they need to turn public concern about AI into political accountability, pushing for real guardrails, holding tech companies responsible for what they build, and giving local communities a voice in how it's deployed.
Our 2026 Voter and Campaign Guides will:
Highlight the AI issues where Americans are in agreement
Help candidates and campaigns shape their positions by offering solutions that prioritize the public’s interest
Equip voters with tools to evaluate candidates on these issues
