The 2022 Minas Gerais state elections took place in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil on 2 October 2022. Voters elected a governor, vice governor, one senator, 53 representatives for the Chamber of Deputies, and 77 Legislative Assembly members. The incumbent governor, Romeu Zema, a member of the New Party, was eligible for a second term, and intended to run for reelection.

For the election to the Federal Senate, the seat occupied by Alexandre Silveira, from the Social Democratic Party (PSD), was at dispute. Silveira took office in February 2022 with the resignation of the incumbent elected in 2014, Antônio Anastasia (PSDB). Anastasia took office as a Justice of the Federal Court of Accounts of Brazil (TCU).
