The 1986 Arizona House of Representatives elections were held on November 4, 1986. Voters elected all 60 members of the Arizona House of Representatives in multi-member districts to serve a two-year term. The elections coincided with the elections for other offices, including Governor, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, and State Senate. Primary elections were held on September 9, 1986. [3]

Contents

Prior to the elections, the Republicans held a majority of 38 seats over the Democrats' 22 seats.

Following the elections, Republicans maintained control of the chamber, though their majority was reduced to 36 Republicans to 24 Democrats, a net gain of two seats for Democrats. [4]

The newly elected members served in the 38th Arizona State Legislature, during which Republican Joe Lane was elected as Speaker of the Arizona House. [lower-alpha 1]
