1922 United States House Of Representatives Elections
The 1922 United States House of Representatives elections were held for the United States House of Representatives in November 1922, in the middle of President Warren G. Harding's term. Just as voters had expressed their distrust of Wilson in 1920, now voters had a chance to express the widespread feeling that Congress had failed to address economic problems, especially the brief but sharp economic recession of 1921–1922. Most of the seats that Republicans lost had long been held by Democrats, who now returned with an even stronger base in the major cities. The Republican Party lost a net of 77 seats to the opposition Democratic Party. The Republicans were neither unified nor well led, and they could boast of very few successes except tax cuts for the wealthy and for corporations, and higher tariffs that pleased manufacturing interest but raised consumer prices.

1922 Georgia Gubernatorial Election
The 1922 Georgia gubernatorial election took place on November 7, 1922, in order to elect the Governor of Georgia. Incumbent Democratic Governor Thomas W. Hardwick was defeated in the Democratic primary.
