The 2018 United States House of Representatives elections in Arizona were held on November 6, 2018, to elect the nine U.S. representatives from the State of Arizona , one from each of the state's nine congressional districts . The elections coincided with the 2018 Arizona gubernatorial election , as well as other elections to the U.S. House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate and various state and local elections . The 2018 general elections saw the Democratic party gain the 2nd congressional district, thus flipping the state from a 5–4 Republican advantage to a 5–4 Democratic advantage, the first time since the 2012 election in which Democrats held more House seats in Arizona than the Republicans.
