Which party, if any, is favored in each 2026 state legislative chamber with seats up in Delaware?

FutureBallot’s state legislative forecast dated October 30, 2026, 12:45 UTC lists majority chances, marks a chamber nonpartisan, or reports unresolved probabilities for each chamber with seats up.

Which party, if any, is favored in each 2026 state legislative chamber with seats up in Delaware?
ChamberDemocratic majorityRepublican majoritySeats up
Delaware House100.0%0.0%41
Delaware Senate100.0%0.0%11

Each chamber is a separate contest. These are not joint probabilities of controlling the legislature. A range assigns seats that cannot be forecast to each party in turn. When exact party probabilities sum to less than 100%, the remainder is the chance neither party has a majority. No party-majority probability is reported for a nonpartisan chamber.
