2024 North Dakota elections

← 2022 November 5, 2024 (2024-11-05) 2026 →

North Dakota will hold two statewide elections in 2024: a primary election on Tuesday, June 11, and a general election on Tuesday, November 5.[1]

Primary election[edit]

On Tuesday, June 11, North Dakota voters will select which candidates for statewide and legislative office will appear on the November ballot. Because North Dakota does not have party registration, any eligible voter could vote in any one party's primary election. 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[edit]

On Tuesday, November 5, concurrent with other statewide elections across the United States, North Dakota voters will select one United States Senator, one United States Representative, Secretary of State, Attorney General, and several other statewide executive and judicial branch offices. Voters in even-numbered legislative districts will also select their representatives to the North Dakota House of Representatives and North Dakota Senate.
