2002 Arizona House of Representatives election

The 2002 Arizona House of Representatives election took place on Tuesday, November 5, 2002, with the primary election held on Tuesday, September 10, 2002. Arizona voters elected all 60 members of the Arizona House of Representatives in multi-member districts to serve two-year terms.

The election coincided with United States national elections and Arizona state elections, including U.S. House, Governor, and Arizona Senate.

Following the previous election in 2000, Republicans held a 36-to-24-seat majority over Democrats. Republicans expanded their majority in 2002, winning 39 seats. At 21 members, Democrats experienced a net loss of three seats. The newly elected members served in the 46th Arizona State Legislature, during which Republican Jake Flake was elected as Speaker of the Arizona House.

These were the first elections in Arizona following the 2000 United States redistricting cycle, which resulted in redrawn legislative district boundaries.
