The 2006 Arizona House of Representatives election took place on Tuesday, November 7, 2006, with the primary election held on Tuesday, September 12, 2006.[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. Senate, U.S. House, Arizona Governor, and Arizona Senate.[9][10]

Following the previous election in 2004, Republicans held a 38-to-22-seat majority over Democrats.[11][12][13] During the legislative session, Representative Cheryl Chase switched political party affiliation from Democrat to Republican.[a] Republicans maintained their majority in 2006, though the GOP majority narrowed to 33 seats. At 27 members, Democrats experienced a net gain of six seats.[6][9][10] The newly elected members served in the 48th Arizona State Legislature, during which Republican Jim Weiers was re-elected as Speaker of the Arizona House.[b]
