Prior to the elections, the Democrats held a majority of 52 seats over the Republicans' 28 seats.
Following the elections, Democrats maintained control of the chamber with 48 Democrats to 32 Republicans, a net gain of four seats for Republicans.[4] Democratic Representative Dr. Charles W. Sechrist took the oath of office January 14, 1963 to fill the seat won by deceased Democrat Dr. Carroll Clark Creighton. Creighton died on election day, November 6, 1962. He would have represented Coconino-1.[lower-alpha 1]
The newly elected members served in the 26th Arizona State Legislature, during which Democrat W. B. Barkley was chosen as Speaker of the Arizona House.[lower-alpha 2]
