The 2000 Arizona House of Representatives election took place on Tuesday, November 7, 2000, with the primary election held on Tuesday, September 12, 2000.[5][6][7] Arizona voters elected all 60 members of the Arizona House of Representatives in multi-member districts to serve two-year terms.[8]
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.[5][6][7]
Following the previous election in 1998, Republicans held a 40-to-20-seat majority over Democrats.[9] Republicans maintained control of the chamber in 2000, though their majority was reduced to 36 seats. At 24 members, Democrats saw a net gain of four seats.[5][6][7] The newly elected members served in the 45th Arizona State Legislature, during which Republican Jim Weiers was elected as Speaker of the Arizona House.[a]
