2026 Election Picture for North Dakota
North Dakota's 2026 primary was held on June 9, 2026. North Dakota does not have a U.S. Senate seat up for election in 2026 — its senators' class isn't on this cycle's ballot. All 1 of North Dakota's U.S. House seat is on the ballot in 2026, since House terms are two years. The general election is November 3, 2026.
For context on the 2026 map: in the 2024 presidential election Trump carried North Dakota by 36.5 points.
2026 is a midterm election year — it falls in the middle of the presidential term, so there is no presidential race on North Dakota's 2026 ballot. Every U.S. House seat nationwide is on the ballot every two years, and roughly a third of U.S. Senate seats — whichever class is next in rotation — are up in every congressional election, midterm or presidential.

Senate Class Breakdown
U.S. Senators serve staggered 6-year terms split into three classes, so a state's two Senate seats usually aren't on the ballot in the same year. North Dakota's two Senate seats are staggered across different classes.
The staggered system dates to the Constitution's framers, who wanted the Senate to change gradually rather than all at once — unlike the House, where every seat turns over every two years. Roughly one-third of the Senate's 100 seats (whichever class is next up) is on the ballot in any given election year, which is why only some states have a Senate race in any particular cycle.
- John Hoeven is Class 3 — next up for election in 2028.
- Kevin Cramer is Class 1 — next up for election in 2030.
