The 2022 Maryland House of Delegates election was held on November 8, 2022, electing all 141 members of the chamber. This coincided with the election of all 47 of Maryland's state senators, along with other statewide offices. The Democratic and Republican primaries were held on July 19, 2022.[1]

Democrats gained 3 seats, increasing their supermajority to 102 out of 141 seats.[2] Simultaneously with gains in the state senate and Wes Moore's win in the gubernatorial race, Democrats won a trifecta in the state for the first time since 2010.[3]
