The 2022 Idaho House of Representatives elections took place on November 8, 2022. Primary elections were held on May 17, 2022. Idaho voters elected state representatives in all 70 seats of the House, electing two state representatives in each of the 35 Idaho state legislative districts. State representatives serve two-year terms in the Idaho House of Representatives.
The election coincided with United States national elections and Idaho state elections, including U.S. Senate, U.S. House, Governor, and Idaho Senate. Since the previous election in 2020, Republicans held a 58-to-12-seat supermajority over Democrats. Republicans gained a seat in 2022, increasing their supermajority to 59 seats.
These were the first elections in Idaho following the 2020 United States redistricting cycle, which resulted in some members being assigned to new districts.
