The 2022 Pernambuco state elections took place in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil on 2 October 2022. Voters elected a governor, vice governor, one senator, 25 representatives for the Chamber of Deputies, and 49 Legislative Assembly members. Paulo Câmara, the incumbent governor of Pernambuco, was reelected in the first round in 2018 Pernambuco gubernatorial election, with 1,918,219 votes, the equivalent to 50.70% of the valid votes. He wasn't eligible for a new term, since he ran for governor in 2014 and 2018. In a crowded field, former mayor of Caruaru Raquel Lyra (PSDB) defeated Federal Deputy Marília Arraes (Solidarity) by close to 20 points in the second round. She was inaugurated on 1 January 2023.
For the election to the Federal Senate, the seat occupied since 2014 by Fernando Bezerra Coelho, who was elected by the Brazilian Socialist Party (PSB), and currently affiliated to the Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB), was at dispute. Teresa Leitão (PT), a state deputy, defeated former Minister of Tourism Gilson Machado (PL) by 15 points.
