North Dakota is holding congressional and local primary elections on Tuesday.

 

The races and the stakes

There is one US Senate seat up for election this November in North Dakota that's currently filled by Sen. John Hoeven, who's running for reelection in the Republican primary against Riley Kuntz, who's currently working on a drilling rig. On the Democratic side, there are two candidates running for Senate: Katrina Christiansen and Michael Steele. According to Sabato's Crystal Ball at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, the seat will almost assuredly go to a Republican — the experts rate the race as "safe R."

As for the House of Representatives, North Dakota has just one at-large congressional district, which is currently held by Republican Rep. Kelly Armstrong. Armstrong isn't facing any Republican challengers — in November he'll run against Democrat Mark Haugen, who also has no primary challengers. The race in November will likely be won by a Republican — Sabato's Crystal Ball rates the race as "safe R."

At the state level, North Dakota has 47 seats in its state senate. Of the 47 seats, 32 are up for election this November. The state senate has 39 Republicans, seven Democrats, and one vacant seat.
