The 2022 elections for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives were held on November 8, 2022, with all districts currently being decided. The term of office for those elected in 2022 began when the House of Representatives convened in January 2023. Pennsylvania State Representatives are elected for two-year terms, with all 203 seats up for election every two years.[2]

In what was described as a "shocking upset", Democrats gained 12 seats, giving them a majority of 102 out of 203 seats and winning control of the chamber for the first time since 2010, despite losing the popular vote (although this was partly because there were many uncontested Republican districts).[3][4][5] This defied many analysts’ predictions, including that of Sabato's Crystal Ball, which had rated House control as "Likely Republican".

Aftermath

[edit]

For months after the election, partisan control of the chamber was claimed by both parties, with three vacancies due to Democrats not being able to take their seats due to death or resignation.[152] After protracted bipartisan negotiations, 16 Republicans joined all Democrats in voting for Mark Rozzi as Speaker, who subsequently announced that he would become an independent and no longer caucus with the Democrats.[153][154][155] However, a special session to set operating rules in the House on November 9 was postponed indefinitely, and Jim Gregory, who nominated Rozzi as Speaker, called for him to resign, claiming that he had broken his promise to switch his party registration to independent.[156] Rozzi never left the Democratic caucus, instead resigning the speakership after passing an amendment to provide relief for victims of childhood sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church. Joanna McClinton would be elected speaker in a party-line vote following special elections to fill the vacant seats in February 2023.[157]
