The 2024 United States state legislative elections were held on November 5, 2024, for 85 state legislative chambers in 44 states. Across the fifty states, approximately 65 percent of all upper house seats and 85 percent of all lower house seats will be up for election. Nine legislative chambers in the five permanently inhabited U.S. territories and the federal district of Washington, D.C., also held elections. The elections take place concurrently with several other federal, state, and local elections, including the presidential election, U.S. Senate elections, U.S. House elections, and gubernatorial elections.
Republicans currently control 56 legislative chambers, while Democrats control 41. Both chambers of the Alaska Legislature are controlled by bipartisan coalitions. The states of Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania are expected to hold the most competitive elections for legislative control.[1] Additionally, court-ordered redistricting in Wisconsin is expected to lead to Democratic gains in both chambers of the Wisconsin Legislature.[2]
