The 2000 Arizona House of Representatives election took place on Tuesday, November 7, 2000, with the primary election held on Tuesday, September 12, 2000. Arizona voters elected all 60 members of the Arizona House of Representatives in multi-member districts to serve two-year terms.
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.
Following the previous election in 1998, Republicans held a 40-to-20-seat majority over Democrats. 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. The newly elected members served in the 45th Arizona State Legislature, during which Republican Jim Weiers was elected as Speaker of the Arizona House.
