Elections for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives were held on November 5, 2002, with all districts being contested.[1] State Representatives are elected for two-year terms, with the entire House of Representatives up for a vote every two years.[2] The term of office for those elected in 2002 ran from January 7, 2003[3] until November 30, 2004.[4] Necessary primary elections were held on May 21, 2002.[5]
This was the first Pennsylvania House of Representatives election held after the constitutionally-mandated[6] decennial reapportionment plan.[7][8]
