Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Broader Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox election Шаблон:Elections in Maryland The 2024 Maryland's 6th congressional district election will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect the United States Representative for Maryland's 6th congressional district, concurrently with elections for the other U.S. House districts in Maryland and the rest of the country, as well as the 2024 U.S. Senate race in Maryland, other elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The primary election will be held on May 14, 2024. The 6th district is based in western Maryland and the northwest District of Columbia exurbs and outer suburbs. It takes in all of Allegany, Frederick, Garrett, and Washington counties, as well as portions of Montgomery County. Cities in the district include Cumberland, Frederick, Gaithersburg, Germantown, and Hagerstown.

The incumbent is Democrat David Trone, who was re-elected with 54.7% of the vote in 2022. Trone was first elected in 2018, when Democratic incumbent John Delaney retired to focus on his 2020 presidential campaign. Trone is not seeking re-election, instead choosing to run for the U.S. Senate. A wide field of candidates have filed for the race to replace Trone, with over 15 in all. Maryland Matters remarked that both Democrats and Republicans would need to find a candidate with a wide appeal, as the 6th district is largely split between suburban and rural areas.

The 6th district is considered the most competitive congressional district in the state of Maryland, despite being a moderately blue largely suburban district with a more sparsely populated rural component. While Republicans typically run up large margins in the state's Western Panhandle (Washington, Allegany, and Garrett counties), the district has a slight Democratic lean due to the more heavily populated, strongly Democratic Montgomery County, and the former Republican stronghold of Frederick County, which has trended towards the Democrats in recent elections. Republicans last won the district in 2010, when long-serving Republican Roscoe Bartlett was elected to his final term; he lost re-election to Delaney in 2012 after the district became significantly more favorable to the Democratic Party during redistricting. Democrat Joe Biden won the district with 53.9% of the vote in the 2020 presidential election.
