State legislative officeholder from OpenStates nightly current-legislator data.
With a 2024 presidential margin of R+54.9, District 9 ranks among the state's most reliably conservative constituencies. Its small population of roughly 17,000 reflects the sparse settlement patterns typical of rural western North Dakota.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 47.0 points in 2008. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 3.8 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 17.1 points.
A population of 17,344, a 24% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $62,684 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of State House District 16 and State House District 71.
