The Cook County, Illinois, general elections were held on November 8, 2022.[1] Primaries were held on June 28, 2022.[2]

Elections were held for Assessor, Clerk, Sheriff, Treasurer, President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners, all 17 seats of the Cook County Board of Commissioners, all three seats of the Cook County Board of Review, three seats on the Water Reclamation District Board, and judgeships on the Circuit Court of Cook County.

The Republican Party saw its representation on the Cook County Board of Commissioners reduced from two seats to a single seat. Cook County Commissioner Sean M. Morrison's victory by a margin of 2.58% in his district marked the only victory in a partisan county race for a Republican nominee, with Democrats winning all other partisan elections.
