The 2022 Nevada State Controller election took place on November 8, 2022, to elect the next Nevada State Controller. Incumbent Democratic Controller Catherine Byrne did not seek re-election to a second term.[1] Republican candidate Andy Matthews won the election, flipping the seat and marking the best performance for a Nevada Republican in a statewide race in 2022, as all other successful Republican candidates for statewide races won with pluralities of the vote.
