Oklahoma's congressional districts

As of the 2020 census, there are five United States congressional districts in Oklahoma. It was one of the states that was able to keep the same number of congressional districts from the previous census (in the past, Oklahoma has had as many as nine House of Representatives seats). Following the 2018 elections, a Democratic challenger ousted a Republican incumbent, changing the congressional delegation to a 4-1 Republican majority. The Republicans regained the seat in 2020 when Stephanie Bice defeated Kendra Horn.

Current districts and representatives

This is a list of United States representatives from Oklahoma, their terms, their district boundaries, and the district political ratings according to the CPVI. The delegation has a total of 5 members, all 5 being members of the Republican Party.

Oklahoma’s congressional districts are an example of a partisan gerrymander, in this case favouring the Republican Party, which has full control over redistricting in the state. Oklahoma County has a very evenly split partisan composition and had a population almost exactly equal to that needed for a single congressional district, but in 2021 redistricting, Republican state legislators ‘split’ the county to ensure that all five congressional districts leaned Republican.
