The2022 Colorado House of Representatives elections took place on November 8, 2022, along with theelections in theState Senate . The primary elections were held on June 28, 2022.[ 2] Voters in all 65 districts of the stateHouse elected their representative for a two-year term.[ 3] These coincided withother Colorado elections of the same year and the biennialUnited States elections .
Democrats gained five seats, increasing their majority to 46 out of 65 seats and giving them a supermajority in the State House for the first time in over 50 years.[ 4]
In theprevious state House election (2020) , theDemocrats held on to their majority of 17 seats, with no net seat change.[ 5] Therefore, for Democrats to lose their absolute majority in the House in this election,Republicans and other parties needed to gain at least 9 more seats.
This was the first election with the districts drawn based on the2020 census .[ 6]
Incumbents not seeking re-election [ edit ] Representatives who have served four consecutive terms are not eligible for re-election. For terms to be considered non-consecutive, there needs to be a gap of at least four years between them.[ 3]
