2022 Council of the District of Columbia election

The council is composed of thirteen members, each elected by district residents to a four-year term. One member is elected from each of the district's eight wards. Four at-large members represent the district as a whole. The chairman of the council is likewise elected at an at-large basis. The terms of the at-large members are staggered so that two are elected every two years, and each D.C. resident may vote for two different at-large candidates in each general election.

According to the Home Rule Act, of the chair and the at-large members, a maximum of three may be affiliated with the majority political party. In the council's electoral history, of the elected members who were not affiliated with the majority party, most were elected as at-large members. In 2008 and 2012, Democrats such as David Grosso, Elissa Silverman, and Michael A. Brown changed their party affiliation to Independent when running for council.

To become a candidate for council an individual must be resident of the District of Columbia for at least one year prior to the general election, a registered voter, and hold no other public office for which compensation beyond expenses is received. Candidates running for a ward position must be a resident of that ward.

Democrats remained the largest party in the council, reelecting every incumbent running, and holding onto wards 3 and 5. Elissa Silverman (Independent, At-large) lost her seat to former Ward 5's councilman Kenyan McDuffie.

Incumbent Chairperson Phil Mendelson was re-elected for a third full term after defeating DC Statehood Green party candidate Darryl Moch and Republican candidate Nate Derenge. He was challenged in the Democratic primary by progressive Erin Palmer.{{Cite web |title=DCision 2022: Your Guide To The Candidates And Races In The D.C.

Elections for two at-large seats were held in 2022. Incumbent Democratic councilwoman Anita Bonds was re-elected after being the most voted candidate, while incumbent independent Elissa Silverman was defeated by independent Kenyan McDuffie, formerly a Democrat serving as councilman for ward 5, who came in second.

The first seat may be won by anyone from any party but the second seat is reserved for someone who is not affiliated with majority party. Bonds was challenged by three Democrats in the June 21 primary, all of whom criticized her role as chair of the council's housing committee, but was renominated with 35% of the vote.

The Democrats easily swept elections in all four wards, securing more than three fourths of the vote in each. They recorded their worst result in Ward 3 with 75.88% of the vote, performing the weakest in Precinct 9, where they won just 57.02% of the vote. Conversely, the Democrats earned their best performance in Ward 6, where incumbent Charles Allen won 94% of the vote against write-in candidates. DC's tiny Republican Party earned the second places in Wards 3 and 5, while the even smaller Green Party contested Ward 1.{{cite web |title=General Election 2022 - Certified Results |url=https://electionresults.dcboe.org/election_statistics/2022-General-Election |website=District of Columbia Board of Elections |access-date=28 May 2024}}

Incumbent Councilperson Mary Cheh initially signaled that she would run for reelection, but announced on February 11 that she was ending her campaign.{{cite news |last1=Dil |first1=Cuneyt |title=Veteran D.C. Council member Mary Cheh ends re-election bid |url=https://www.axios.com/local/washington-dc/2022/02/11/veteran-dc-council-member-mary-cheh-ends-re-election-bid |access-date=24 February 2022 |work=Axios |date=11 February 2022}} At the time of her announcement, Cheh had only two opponents, Brown and Nemeth. Within hours, Cheh's former campaign treasurer, Matt Frumin announced his candidacy. In the following days, several more candidates announced bids for the now-open seat. Ultimately, nine candidates made the primary ballot. Receiving an endorsement from The Washington Post, Eric Goulet became the premier moderate candidate in the race and raised a significant amount of money from outside groups such as the DC Association of Realtors and Democrats for Education Reform. On June 13, spurred by massive outside spending from pro-charter school groups, Tricia Duncan withdrew her campaign and endorsed Matt Frumin. The following day, ANC Commissioner Ben Bergmann and student Henry Cohen withdrew their campaigns in support of Frumin.

Following these developments, councilmembers George, Allen, and Silverman endorsed Frumin, leading to further consolidation.
