Redistricting

Locate and view your new congressional district. Result includes a side by side map comparison of how the district shape will change. Not yet available for Missouri, New Hampshire, or New York.

New Hampshire is the only state without an active map. The latest proposal was approved by the Legislature; Gov. Chris Sununu has not indicated if he will sign it. The Legislature and Governor have been at odds, with Sununu preferring both districts be competitive, as has been the case in the past. The Legislature is attempting to make both district more partisan, to increase the likelihood of a GOP victory in District 1. The State Supreme Court has also weighed in, imposing a June 1 deadline after which the justices will draw the maps.

Litigation remains active in some other states, most notably in Florida. Given calendar realities, it is becoming less likely that any of those efforts will affect the maps in place for this year's elections.

Consensus Map

Georgia, Alabama, and Arkansas hold primaries Tuesday. These are all runoff states; the top two finishers will advance to a June 21 runoff if no candidate gets a majority of the vote. Separately, Texas holding runoff elections from the March 1 primary.

There are also two state legislative special elections and a primary for the vacancy in Minnesota's First Congressional District

While you're awaiting the results, check out our new feature that lets you view the congressional district - before and after redistricting - for any U.S. street address. 

U.S. Senate

Alabama (Republican)

The seat will almost certainly remain in Republican control, so all the action is around who the nominee will be. Sen. Richard Shelby is not seeking a 7th term. He has endorsed his former Chief of Staff, Katie Britt. The other prominent names on the ballot are Rep. Mo Brooks (AL-05) and businessman Michael Durant.

None of the three has cleared 40% in this frequently-polled race, so a June top two runoff seems likely. Donald Trump unendorsed Brooks in March, saying he had gone "woke", although the fact that the candidate was sinking in the polls likely was a contributing factor. However, Brooks has seen a resurgence in the campaign's closing weeks, leaving it very much up in the air which two candidates will advance.

Primaries for the vacant seat in Minnesota's first congressional district are being held Tuesday. The prior incumbent, Republican Jim Hagedorn died in February. Hagedorn was reelected by 3% in 2020, running behind Donald Trump who won by 10% over Joe Biden. The presidential result may better reflect the partisan lean of this largely rural district that stretches across the southern tier of the state. 

The primary winners will meet in the August 9 special general election, which coincides with the statewide primary. Most forecasters rate the special election Likely or Safe Republican.

Polls close at 9:00 PM Eastern Time.

There are two legislative special elections on Tuesday, although only one of them is contested.

New York State Assembly District 58

Democrats hold a large majority in the New York State Assembly. The party controls 105 seats, alongside 43 Republicans and one Independence Party member. Members serve two-year terms. The next regularly scheduled elections will be in November. These will be contested using redistricted boundaries.

District 58 is located in Brooklyn. The prior incumbent, Democrat Nick Perry resigned in March to become Ambassador to Jamaica.

There are three candidates on the ballot. Polls close at 9:00 PM Eastern Time.

A New York court finalized the state's new congressional map late Friday night, setting in place the district boundaries to be used over the next decade. The shapes have been added to the 2022 House Interactive Map, leaving New Hampshire as the only state without a new plan in place.

The new map, created by a court-appointed mapmaker, replaces the one enacted into law in early February. That plan, which heavily favored Democrats, was ruled invalid by this same court in late March, setting the process in motion which led to Friday's decision. Due to the delay, the state's congressional primaries were rescheduled to August 23.

The state's current delegation of 19 Democrats and 8 Republicans^{1 1}Includes the vacant NY-23, formerly held by Republican Tom Reed who resigned earlier this month. was on track to move to 22 Democrats and 4 Republicans after the original map was enacted. The state is losing a district following the 2020 Census. According to Cook Political's David Wasserman, the new map includes a larger number of potentially competitive seats, with a wide swing in outcomes possible depending on the environment.

Florida's enacted congressional redistricting plan is back in effect, pending further appeal. The shapes have been added back to the 2022 House Interactive Map. 

Updates on the last few states to complete redistricting. 

Missouri (8 districts): On Wednesday, Gov. Mike Parson (R) signed Missouri's new congressional map into law. The process had been bottlenecked in the Legislature for months, as the GOP-controlled Senate and House could not agree on a proposal. In the end, the new map isn't all that different than the one in place over the last decade. Republicans are expected to maintain a 6-2 edge in the delegation. The new shapes have been added to the 2022 House Interactive Map. 

Kansas (4): On Wednesday, the State Supreme Court upheld the redistricting plan passed by the Legislature in January. Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly's veto was overridden in February, setting the stage for litigation. The new map redistricts part of Kansas City out of District 3, endangering the reelection prospects Sharice Davids, the lone Democrat in the state's delegation. The shapes have been added back to the interactive map.

While you're awaiting the results, check out our new feature that lets you view the congressional district - before and after redistricting - for any U.S. street address. 

U.S. Senate

There are seats up in all five of these states. However, things look safe Tuesday and in November for the incumbents in Idaho, Kentucky, and Oregon.

Pennsylvania (Republican)

Sen. Pat Toomey (R) is retiring. Surgeon and media personality Mehmet Oz has been endorsed by Donald Trump. Until recently, this appeared to be a two-way race between Oz and hedge fund manager David McCormick. However, Kathy Barnette, a conservative commentator, has surged in recent weeks. She has recently been endorsed by the Club for Growth. Trump has subsequently come out against Barnette, saying she would have a hard time winning in November.

There are a handful of legislative special elections on Tuesday. Those in Oregon and Pennsylvania coincide with the statewide primary, while South Carolina's is standalone. That state's primary is June 14.

Pennsylvania State Senate District 5

Republicans hold a 28-20 edge over Democrats in the Pennsylvania State Senate. There is one independent. Members serve staggered four-year terms; half the seats are up for election in November. Nominees are being chosen in Tuesday's statewide primaries using redistricted boundaries.

District 5 is located in Philadelphia. Democrat John Sabatina Jr. was elected as a judge of the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas last November and vacated the seat upon assuming that office. Sabatina was unopposed for reelection in 2020. He defeated his GOP opponent by 67% to 32% in 2016.

The nominees are Democrat Jimmy Dillon and Republican Sam Oropeza. Polls close at 8:00 PM Eastern Time.

With five statewide primaries Tuesday, municipal elections won't receive top billing.
