An election is scheduled to be held in the U.S. State of North Dakota on November 3, 2026 to elect the North Dakota Attorney General to a four-year term. A partisan primary election will be held on June 9, 2026.
Incumbent Republican attorney general Drew Wrigley is running for re-election. He only faces write-in opposition in the Republican primary, and will likely face presumptive Democratic–NPL nominee Tim Lamb, who was also the nominee in 2022. Wrigley was first appointed in 2022 after the death of Wayne Stenehjem, and later elected to a full term that year with 70.95 percent of the vote. North Dakota leans heavily Republican, with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump winning the state with 66.96 percent of the vote in 2024.
This election will take place alongside races for U.S. House, state house, state senate, and numerous other state and local offices.
