The 2022 Texas House of Representatives elections were held on November 8, 2022, to elect representatives from all 150 House of Representatives districts across the U.S. state of Texas. It was held alongside numerous other federal, state, and local elections, including the 2022 Texas State Senate election. The winners of this election served in the 88th Texas Legislature, with seats apportioned according to the 2020 United States census. Background Democrats made major inroads in the Texas House of representatives in 2018, especially in suburban areas; however, in 2020, Republicans maintained control of the Texas House of Representatives by an 83–67 margin. Republicans had controlled the chamber since the 2002 election. This election was the first election held after the 2020 United States redistricting cycle. In July 2021, the majority of Democratic representatives broke quorum during a special legislative session in protest of a controversial Republican-backed voting restrictions bill. On November 2, 2021, Republican John Lujan won a special election in District 118, flipping it. On November 15, 2021, Democratic representative Ryan Guillen announced he was changing his party affiliation to Republican. Guillen was the only Democrat in the state house to vote in favor of the Republicans' voting and transgender athlete laws. This left the partisan balance at 85 Republicans and 65 Democrats going into the 2022 elections. Democrats would have needed to flip 11 seats in order to claim control of the chamber from Republicans. Redistricting Following the 2020 United States census, the Texas Legislature underwent its decennial redistricting. Texas House of Representatives districts follow the "county line rule," effectively granting individual counties delegations of state house seats based on their population. The census found that Texas had a population of 29,145,505 in 2020, giving each district an "ideal population" of 194,303 people. In 2010, the "ideal population for a district" was 167,637 people. Counties with at least this number of people must fully contain at least one state house district. Counties with sufficient population for two or more districts must be divided into that number of districts. Should a county have sufficient population for one or more district plus a fraction of another, one district from another county may extend into it to represent the remaining population. District delegations for counties with at least one district changed as follows following the 2020 Census: *Cameron County contains parts of both District 35 and District 37, which the Mexican American Legislative Caucus argued in MALC v. Abbott violates the "county line rule." As a result of these changes, the following districts drastically moved: District 9 moved from the Louisiana/Arkansas border to central East Texas. Districts 12 and 13 switched places. District 19 moved from East Texas to Central Texas. District 57 moved from East Texas to Denton County. District 61 moved from Wise and Parker Counties to Collin County. District 68 moved from West Texas to North Texas. District 76 moved from El Paso County to Fort Bend County.
