Democratic , and Libertarian parties' nominations will take place on June 28, 2022.[1] All candidates must file between the days of April 13–15, 2022.[1]
The 2022 election cycle will be the first election following redistricting .

District 1
The incumbent is Republican Kevin Hern , was re-elected with 63.7% of the vote in 2020 .[4] Since only one candidate filed to be a nominee for each party, there will be no primary elections in Oklahoma's first congressional district.

Republican primary
