The 2018 United States House of Representatives elections in Kansas will be held on November 6, 2018, to elect the four U.S. Representatives from the state of Kansas, one from each of the state's four congressional districts.
Republican Roger Marshall was be sworn in to represent this district in 2017 after defeating incumbent Congressman, Tim Huelskamp, in the Republican primary 57% to 43%.
Tim Huelskamp filed a statement of candidacy to run for this seat in 2018 with the FEC on October 17, 2016. Huelskamp has made no announcement about whether he is considering a potential rematch with Marshall, but did send a fundraising email attacking Marshall and soliciting donations.
Incumbent Republican Lynn Jenkins has represented the district since 2009. Jenkins was re-elected with 61% of the vote in 2016.
Jenkins had considered running for governor instead of re-election, but decided to retire and not run for any office in 2018.
Former House Minority Leader and 2014 gubernatorial nominee Paul Davis has created an exploratory committee for a potential campaign.
Incumbent Republican Kevin Yoder has represented the district since 2011. Yoder was re-elected with 51% of the vote in 2016.
Yoder is considered a potential candidate for governor in 2018.
