The 2019 United States elections will be held (for the most part) on Tuesday, November 5. The off-year election includes gubernatorial and state legislative elections in a few states; as well as numerous citizen initiatives, mayoral races, and a variety of other local offices on the ballot. Special elections to the United States Congress may take place if vacancies arise.
The 2019 state elections will impact the redistricting that will follow the 2020 United States Census, as many states task governors and state legislators with drawing new boundaries for state legislative and Congressional districts.
Three states will hold gubernatorial elections in 2019:
Legislative elections will be held for both houses of the Louisiana Legislature, the Mississippi Legislature, the Virginia General Assembly, the New Jersey General Assembly and various legislative offices in Kentucky.
