2022 United States House of Representatives elections in Nevada

The 2022 United States House of Representatives elections in Nevada were held on November 8, 2022, to elect the four U.S. representatives from the state of Nevada, one from each of the state's four congressional districts. The elections coincided with the Nevada gubernatorial election, as well as other elections to the U.S. House of Representatives, elections to the U.S. Senate, and various state and local elections.

Nevada was one of two states in which the party that won the state's popular vote did not win a majority of seats in 2022, the other state being Pennsylvania.

Redistricting

The Nevada Legislature drew new maps for Nevada's congressional districts to account for the new 2020 census data. The Democratic Party controlled the whole redistricting process at the time. Legislators drew the maps for the state in late 2021. The maps that were eventually passed were criticized as partisan gerrymanders.
