The 2016 Arizona House of Representatives election took place on Tuesday, November 8, 2016, with the primary election held on Tuesday, August 30, 2016.[5][6] Arizona voters elected all 60 members of the Arizona House of Representatives in multi-member districts to serve two-year terms.[7]
The election coincided with United States national elections and Arizona state elections, including U.S. president, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, and Arizona Senate.[8][9]
Following the previous election in 2014, Republicans held a 36-to-24-seat majority over Democrats.[10][11][12] Republicans maintained their majority in 2016, though the GOP majority narrowed to 35 seats. At 25 members, Democrats experienced a net gain of one seat.[5][8][9] The newly elected members served in the 53rd Arizona State Legislature, during which Republican J.D. Mesnard was elected as Speaker of the Arizona House.[4][a]
