Candidates endorsed by the 1776 Project PAC saw mixed results in the 2026 midterm elections held November 3. Unofficial returns show endorsed candidates leading or trailing in races across several states, with the group highlighting its victories on social media.
Why it matters
The results test the political influence of a PAC that claims to have helped elect more than 250 school board members over the past three years. Outcomes in local school board and state education races shape decisions on curriculum and school policy for families across the country.
More than two dozen 1776 Project PAC-endorsed candidates appeared on the 2026 general election ballot, and the group claims over 250 school board members elected in three years. Two of its three preferred Kansas State Board of Education candidates won, while several Maryland and Florida races remained unresolved in unofficial returns.

Tuesday, November 3, 2026: 2026 midterm general election held.
Season Trajectory
Local school board races have become a growing arena for national political groups seeking to shape curriculum, a trend that accelerated after parental-rights campaigns around school instruction began in 2021. The 2026 results will show whether the PAC's claimed 250-plus officeholders translate into durable control of education policy.
Families in districts where endorsed candidates win may see changes to history and civics curriculum at the next school board meetings. Parents who want to influence those decisions can attend board sessions and review proposed policy changes before votes are taken.
The takeaway
School board elections often draw less attention than national races but directly shape what students learn. Following local board agendas and candidate endorsements can help voters understand who is influencing those decisions in their own community.
