There were 5,875 state legislative seats up for election on November 3, 2020, in 44 states. Of that total, there were 876 open seats, guaranteeing at least 15% of all seats would be won by newcomers. This was the lowest number and percentage of open seats since Ballotpedia began gathering data in 2010.
An open seat is one where no incumbent filed to run, meaning it is guaranteed to be won by a newcomer. Learn more about the terms and methodologies used in this analysis.
Ballotpedia uses the number and percentage of open seats to help determine the overall competitiveness of an election cycle. A greater number of open seats guarantees more newcomers entering legislatures and typically results in more candidates running for office. A smaller number of open seats guarantees fewer newcomers and typically results in fewer candidates running for office.

Impact of term limits
A seat can become open when an incumbent is term-limited. Fifteen state legislatures have term limits, which require incumbents to leave office after serving a certain length of time.
In 2020, 211 state legislators—60 state senators and 151 state representatives—were term-limited. This represented 4% of the 5,875 total seats up for election, and 24% of the 876 open seats.[1]
Terms and methodologies
Incumbent
- See also: Incumbent
Ballotpedia defines incumbency by chamber. Under this definition, if an incumbent in House District 1 filed for re-election in House District 2, they would still be counted as an incumbent due to their remaining in the same chamber even though they ran for a different seat. If an incumbent in House District 1 filed to run in Senate District 2, they would not be counted as an incumbent in the Senate race since they are coming from a different chamber.
Ballotpedia uses the term re-elect to refer to any incumbent who is running in an election to retain their office, including incumbents who were originally appointed to their position.
Open seat
An open seat is one where no incumbents filed to run, or filed but withdrew and did not appear on any ballot for the seat. Open seat figures freeze at the time of the primary unless an incumbent did not participate in the primary but later chose to seek re-election as a minor party or independent candidate, in which case the seat for which they filed would not be counted as open.
If a seat was open at the time of the primary, but a non-incumbent candidate later assumed office (via special election or appointment), the seat would still be counted as open since the original incumbent did not file to run in the primary.
Seat
State legislative seats represent the total number of candidates who can be elected. These totals may differ from state legislative districts.
In most states, every state legislative district includes a single seat. These are referred to as single-member state legislative districts.
Certain states have multi-member state legislative districts, where a single district contains multiple seats. In these districts, open seat figures pertain to individual seats. For example, if a multi-member district contains three seats and two incumbents file for re-election but one does not, that one seat would be counted as an open seat.
Difference between open seats and retiring incumbents
An open seat is one where no incumbents filed to run. Typically, this occurs when an incumbent leaves office. But incumbents may choose to run for some other seat within the same chamber. When this happens, that incumbent's original seat can be left open without the incumbent leaving office.

Footnotes
- ↑ Some of the 211 term-limited state legislators in 2020 may have resigned before their term ended. These legislators were still counted in the total number of term-limited legislators in 2020.
