The 2018 United States House of Representatives elections in New Jersey were held on November 6, 2018, to elect the 12 U.S. Representatives from the state of New Jersey, one from each of the state's 12 congressional districts. The elections coincided with other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate and various state and local elections. Democrats won 4 seats from Republicans and changed control from 7–5 for Democrats to 11–1 for Democrats, the lowest number of seats Republicans have won in the state since 1912. However, Representative Jeff Van Drew of the 2nd District would later change his party affiliation from Democrat to Republican in December 2019.[1]
