The 2023 Mississippi House of Representatives election was held on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, to elect all 122 members of the Mississippi House of Representatives to four-year terms. It was held concurrently with elections for all statewide offices and the Mississippi State Senate. Primary elections took place on August 8.[1]

Background

In the 2019 Mississippi Legislature elections, Republicans expanded their majorities in both chambers to 75 in the House and 36 in the Senate.[2][3] They had 77 members in the House, five votes short of a two-thirds supermajority, after elected Democrats Kevin Horan and Jon Ray Lancaster switched parties.[4]

In the 2020 Presidential Election, Republican Donald Trump won the most votes in 79 Mississippi House of Representatives Districts and Democrat Joe Biden won the most votes in 43 districts. Going into the 2023 Mississippi House of Representatives Election, Democrats represented 2 districts where Trump won the most votes in 2020: District 33 near Gulfport (Trump + 25%) and District 75 in Hinds County ( Trump + 41%). Going into the 2023 election Republicans represented 2 districts where Biden won the most votes in 2020: District 43, in Oktibbeha County ( Biden + 1%) and District 102, in the Hattiesburg suburbs of Forrest County ( Biden + 6%). Going into the 2023 election, Independents represented 3 districts: District 45, a majority African American district covering several rural counties (Biden + 5%); District 64, centered in the Jackson suburbs of Hinds County (Trump + 1%) and District 96, a majority African-American district in rural Southwest Mississippi ( Biden + 5%).

The 2023 election was the first election held under new district maps following redistricting as a result of the 2020 census.[5]
