The 2024 Michigan House of Representatives elections was held on November 5, 2024, alongside the 2024 United States presidential election.
All 110 seats in the Michigan House of Representatives were elected.
Predictions
Background
Following the redistricting which proceeded the 2020 United States census, the 2022 Michigan House of Representatives election saw the Democrats reclaim a majority in the chamber of 56 to 54. The state house was previously under Republican control. The Democratic Party had also won the majority of the state senate in a simultaneous election.
In 2023, a panel of judges on the United States District Court for the Western District of Michigan ordered a redraw of seven Detroit-area seats in the House as unlawful racial gerrymanders. The seats were redrawn before the 2024 election.
Results
The Democrats lost their majority, with the Republicans winning 58 seats, four of them flipped from Democrat to Republican.

Initially, former state representative Tim Sneller was the only candidate running in the Democratic primary election in the 68th district. He died on July 11. Matt Schlinker of Goodrich announced his candidacy on July 28. The Michigan Democratic State Central Committee attempted to replace Sneller on the August primary ballot with Schlinker, however Judge James Robert Redford ruled that they attempted to do so too late, as early voting had already began. Schlinker began a write-in campaign two weeks before the election. While Sneller won over 6,000 votes, Schlinker ultimately received the number of votes necessary to win the primary.
Incumbent representative David Martin won the Republican primary unopposed.
