The 2022 Rhode Island House of Representatives elections took place on November 8, 2022. Primary elections were held on September 13, 2022. Rhode Island voters elected state representatives in all 75 seats of the House of Representatives to serve two-year terms.
The election coincided with United States national elections and Rhode Island state elections, including U.S. House, Governor, and Rhode Island Senate. Since the previous election in 2020, Democrats held a 65-to-10-seat supermajority over Republicans. Democrats maintained the supermajority in 2022, winning 65 seats. Republicans decreased to nine seats while Jon D. Brien was the sole Independent elected.
These were the first elections in Rhode Island following the 2020 United States redistricting cycle, which resulted in redrawn legislative district boundaries.
