Notes

  1. House district 64 results were rejected because of legal issues regarding the Republican primary held on election day. [1] House district 13 didn't have an election due to incumbent Reggie Fullwood not qualifying for the ballot because of improperly filed paperwork. [2] Both seats were filled by special elections in 2015.
