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]

The 2023 election was the first election held under new district maps following redistricting as a result of the 2020 census.[2]

## Background

[edit]

In the 2019 Mississippi Legislature elections, Republicans expanded their majorities in both chambers to 75 in the House and 36 in the Senate.[3][4] 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.[5]

In the 2020 Presidential Election, Donald Trump won 79 Mississippi House districts while Joe Biden won 43. Heading into the 2023 Mississippi House election, Democrats held 2 districts Trump won: District 33 (Trump +25%) and District 75 (Trump +41%). Republicans held 2 districts Biden won: District 43 (Biden +1%) and District 102 (Biden +6%). Additionally, Independents held 3 districts: District 45 (Biden +5%), District 64 (Trump +1%), and District 96 (Biden +5%).
