The 2018 United States Senate election in North Dakota will take place on November 6, 2018, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the State of North Dakota, concurrently with other elections to the United States Senate, elections to the United States House of Representatives, and various state and local elections.

Incumbent Democratic-NPL Senator Heidi Heitkamp has not announced yet whether she will run for re-election to a second term.[1]

Many observers cite Senator Heitkamp as the most vulnerable incumbent Democrat in 2018, as she balances between cooperating with her co-partisans in the U.S. Senate and pleasing her constituents in deeply-Republican North Dakota; President Donald Trump won in North Dakota by about 36 points.[2]
