The 2022 Rhode Island House of Representatives elections took place on November 8, 2022.^[1] Primary elections were held on September 13, 2022.^[2] Rhode Island voters elected state representatives in all 75 seats of the House of Representatives to serve two-year terms.^[3]

The election coincided with United States national elections and Rhode Island state elections, including U.S. House, Governor, and Rhode Island Senate.^[4]^[5] 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.^[6]

These were the first elections in Rhode Island following the 2020 United States redistricting cycle, which resulted in redrawn legislative district boundaries.^[7]
