Primary election

On June 11, North Dakota voters selected which candidates for statewide and legislative office will appear on the November ballot.

In addition, any number of constitutional amendments, initiated measures, or referred measures will be placed on the ballot by petition or legislative action. [2]

General election

On November 5, concurrent with other statewide elections across the United States, North Dakota voters selected one United States senator, one United States representative, secretary of state, attorney general, and several other statewide executive and judicial branch offices.

Despite losing seats in the House of Representatives, Democrats retained control of the House and very narrowly gained control of the Senate.

This was the first time since 1980 that either chamber of Congress flipped partisan control in a presidential year, and the first time Democrats did so since 1948.
