An election was held on November 8, 2022, to elect all eight members to the Massachusetts Governor's Council.[1] The election coincided with elections for other offices, including governor and U.S. House of Representatives.

Democrats maintained all eight seats on the council and flipped the lieutenant governor seat, which presides over the council. Simultaneously with gains in the general court, state senate and Maura Healey's win in the gubernatorial race, Democrats won a trifecta in the state for the first time since 2010.[2]
