The 2022 Florida House of Representatives elections took place on November 8, 2022, as part of the 2022 United States elections. Florida voters elected state representatives in all 120 of the state's house districts. The 120 State Representatives serve four-year terms in the Florida House of Representatives. A primary election on August 23, 2022, determined which candidates appeared on the November 8 general election ballot.
Following the 2020 state House of Representatives elections, Republicans maintained effective control of the House with a majority of 78 members. Democrats held 42 seats following the 2020 elections. Republicans expanded their House majority to 85, up from 78 in the last election, giving them a supermajority in the House.[1] The concurrently held Senate elections also resulted in a supermajority, giving Republicans supermajority control of the legislature.
First-term incumbent Republican representative Patt Maney had represented Florida House of Representatives 4th District since November 2020. The general election was not held because Maney ran unopposed.
