The 2022 United States House of Representatives elections in Tennessee was held on November 8, 2022, to elect the nine U.S. representatives from the state of Tennessee, one from each of the state's nine congressional districts. The elections coincided with other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections.

These elections were the first under Tennessee's new congressional map after redistricting was completed by the state government. During the general elections, Republican Andy Ogles flipped Tennessee's 5th congressional district, which was previously represented by Democrat Jim Cooper.

Tennessee's congressional districts, 2023-2033
The Tennessee Legislature drew new maps for Tennessee's congressional districts to account for the new 2020 Census data. The Republican Party had a trifecta in the Tennessee Government at the time, giving them full control of the redistricting process. Legislators drew the maps for the state from late 2021 through early 2022.[2] The maps that were eventually passed were widely criticized as partisan gerrymanders.[3][4]
In particular, the redistricting split up the House district which had represented Democrat-heavy Nashville as long as Tennessee had been a state.[5] The three districts that absorbed the city were then all won by Republicans, giving them 89% of Tennessee's U.S. House seats despite only getting 64% of the popular vote. This split also prevented urban voters from electing an African-American representative to the U.S. House,[5] despite representing about 17% of the population.[6]

The 5th district was previously centered on Nashville and the immediate surrounding suburbs, and it also used to contain parts of Cheatham and Dickson county. The incumbent was Democrat Jim Cooper, who ran unopposed in 2020.
On January 25, Cooper announced he would withdraw his candidacy for re-election and refund all campaign contributions,[31] citing the state legislature's move to split Davidson County into three congressional districts.[32]
Under the new Republican redistricting map, the new 5th district shifted from D+7 to R+9 and contains only a small southern part of Nashville, as well as some suburban counties, and some rural counties. The 6th and 7th districts absorbed the western and eastern parts of Davidson county, respectively.[33]
In the general election, Republican Andy Ogles defeated Democratic challenger Heidi Campbell. With Ogles victory, he becomes the first Republican in 150 years to represent Nashville in the House of Representatives.
