Last election 5 2

The 2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Alabama will be held on November 3, 2026, to elect the seven U.S. representatives from the State of Alabama, one from all seven of the state's congressional districts. The elections will coincide with other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The primary elections will take place on May 19, and in races where no candidate receives over 50% in a primary, runoff elections will take place on June 16. Special primary elections will be held on August 11 in districts that were affected by the new congressional map following redistricting in May.

This election will take place alongside races for U.S. Senate, governor, state senate, state house, and numerous other state and local offices.

Redistricting and special primaries

[edit]

Following a ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States that narrowed section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, Kay Ivey called state legislators in for a special session to allow for redrawing of Alabama's congressional map. In the session, a bill was passed to allow for the state to redraw the map if a previous ruling that had blocked the state from redrawing mid-decade following a previous lawsuit was lifted. The Supreme Court lifted that restriction on May 11, 2026, clearing the way for the state to redistrict.[1] On May 12, Ivey scheduled special primary elections to be held in the 1st, 2nd, 6th, and 7th congressional districts on August 11, with no possible runoff election.[2] May 19 primary elections will still be held in the affected district, but the results will be nullified following the special primary.[3]
