The 2018 Kentucky House of Representatives elections were held on November 6, 2018, as part of the biennial United States elections. All 100 of Kentucky's state representatives were up for reelection. In Kentucky, members of the House of Representatives serve two-year terms. Accordingly, they are up for reelection in both presidential and midterm election years.

Democrats, who had long been the dominant party at the state level in Kentucky, held a majority in the state house from 1922 to 2017. [1] In 2016, Republicans made large gains in the chamber, winning a majority of 64 seats. Both parties flipped several seats in 2018, with Republicans grabbing six seats from the Democrats and Democrats taking eight from the Republicans, for a net gain of two Democratic seats. Many of the Democratic gains were in suburban areas, including around Louisville, Lexington, and Owensboro. Republicans made gains in some of Democrats' remaining rural districts, though they significantly underperformed in Appalachian Eastern Kentucky, where Democrats picked up multiple seats.

Several races were decided by extremely narrow margins. Four seats—Districts 13, 27, 91, and 96—were all decided by seven votes or fewer. Republicans ultimately maintained their majority in the chamber, winning 61 seats to the Democrats' 39.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">1952 United States House of Representatives elections</span> House elections for the 83rd U.S. Congress

The 1952 United States House of Representatives elections was an election for the United States House of Representatives to elect members to serve in the 83rd United States Congress. They were held for the most part on November 4, 1952, while Maine held theirs on September 8. This was the first election after the congressional reapportionment based on the 1950 census. It also coincided with the election of President Dwight Eisenhower. Eisenhower's Republican Party gained 22 seats from the Democratic Party, gaining a majority of the House. However, the Democrats had almost 250,000 more votes (0.4%) thanks to overwhelming margins in the Solid South, although this election did see the first Republican elected to the House from North Carolina since 1928, and the first Republicans elected from Virginia since 1930. It was also the last election when both major parties increased their share of the popular vote simultaneously, largely due to the disintegration of the American Labor Party and other third parties.
