2024 United States House of Representatives elections in Kentucky
The 2024 United States House of Representatives elections in Kentucky will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect the six U.S. representatives from the state of Kentucky , one from each of the state's congressional districts . The elections will coincide with the U.S. presidential election , as well as other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate , and various state and local elections . The primary elections took place on May 21, 2024.
The Kentucky Supreme Court heard arguments in September 2023 in a suit alleging that the state legislature violated the state constitution by creating a partisan gerrymander in the state's congressional map by moving the state capital Frankfort to the heavily Republican 1st district. On December 14, 2023, the court affirmed a lower court ruiling resulting in the case being dismissed.[ 1] [ 2]
