The 2016 Michigan House of Representatives elections was held on November 8, 2016, with partisan primaries to select the parties' nominees in the various districts on August 2, 2016. Members elected at the 2016 election will serve in the 99th Michigan Legislature which convenes on January 11, 2017.

Term-limited members

Under the Michigan Constitution, members of the state Senate are only able to serve two four-years terms, and members of the House of Representatives are limited to three two-years terms. The following members are term-limited from seeking re-election to the House in 2016.

Democrats (13)

Republicans (25)

Background

Over one-third of the House is term-limted, with the legislators who were elected in the 2010 mid-term elections, that saw the House Republican conference pick up 21 seats, the largest net gain for one party in an election since Michigan's newly constituted term-limits to effect in 1992.[1][2]
