The 2018 United States House of Representatives elections in Utah were held on November 6, 2018, to elect the four U.S. representatives from the state of Utah, one from each of the state's four congressional districts. The elections coincided with other states' elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate and various state and local elections. Registered political parties in Utah must have at least one of their candidates for House of Representatives get 2% of the vote in their respective election in order to maintain their ballot access in future elections.
The Democratic Party gained the 4th Congressional district, thus breaking unitary control of all of Utah's Congressional (House and Senate) seats held by the Republicans, changing the House delegation from Utah from 4âÂÂ0 Republican to 3âÂÂ1 Republican. As of 2025, this remains the last time that a Democrat has won any congressional election in Utah, and the only time since 2012.
