Alabama State Legislature

[edit]

Every member of the Alabama state legislature was up for election in 2018. Both state senators and state representatives serve four-year terms in Alabama. After the 2014 elections, Republicans maintained control of both chambers. In 2018, all 35 Alabama Senate seats and all 105 Alabama House of Representatives seats were up for election. These seats would not be contested in a regularly scheduled election again until 2022.

The outcome of this election could affect partisan balance during post-2020 census redistricting.[34]

Senate

Republicans won 27 seats, while Democrats won eight. The Republican Party gained one seat, the 29th, which was held by an retiring independent who caucused with the Republicans.

House of Representatives

[edit]

Republicans won 77 seats, while Democrats won 28. The Republican Party gained five seats.

United States House of Representatives

[edit]

All of Alabama's seven seats in the United States House of Representatives were up for election in 2018. Six Republicans and one Democrat were re-elected. No districts changed partisan control.
