The 2018 Northern Mariana Islands general election was held on Tuesday, 13 November, 2018, corresponding with the 2018 United States midterm elections. Originally scheduled to take place on Tuesday, 6 November, 2018, the elections were delayed by one week due to the impact and aftermath of Typhoon Yutu.[1] Early voting was held from Tuesday, 6 November, until Monday, 12 November, 2018.[2] An estimated 18,975 voters were eligible to vote in the 2018 election.[2]

Ninety-seven candidates competed for 45 elected positions across the Northern Mariana Islands.[3] High-profile races included the 2018 gubernatorial election between incumbent governor Ralph Torres, a Republican, and former governor Juan Babauta, as well as the race for non-voting delegate to the United States House of Representatives between incumbent Gregorio Sablan and challenger Angel Demapan.[3][4][5]
