All U.S. House districts, including the 5th Congressional District of Alabama, held elections in 2022. The general election was on November 8, 2022. The primary was scheduled for May 24, 2022, and a primary runoff was scheduled for June 21, 2022. The filing deadline was February 11, 2022.

The election will fill the seat held by Mo Brooks (R), who first took office in 2011. On March 22, 2021, Brooks announced he would run for U.S. Senate in 2022 rather than seek re-election to his U.S. House seat. The outcome of this race affected the partisan balance of the U.S. House of Representatives in the 118th Congress. All 435 House districts were up for election.

Republicans won a 222-213 majority in the U.S. House in 2022.

Daily Kos calculated what the results of the 2020 presidential election in this district would have been following redistricting. Joe Biden (D) would have received 35.6% of the vote in this district and Donald Trump (R) would have received 62.7%.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

• Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
• Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
• Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.
• Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Alabama in 2022. Information below was calculated on April 28, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

In 2022, 22 candidates ran for Alabama’s seven U.S. House districts, including 13 Republicans and eight Democrats. That’s 3.14 candidates per district, less than the 3.57 candidates per district in 2020 and 3.28 in 2018.

This was the first election to take place under new district lines following the 2020 census. Alabama was apportioned the same number of congressional districts as after the 2010 census.

One district — the 5th — was open, with incumbent Rep. Mo Brooks (R) running for the U.S. Senate. Brooks was first elected in 2010 after defeating Steve Raby (D) 57.9% to 42.1%. The open seat in 2022 was one more than in 2012, the previous post-redistricting election year. There were two open seats in 2020, no open seats in 2018 and 2016, and one open seat in 2014.

There were three contested Democratic primaries and two contested Republican primaries. Five incumbents - four Republicans and one Democrat - didn't face any primary challengers. Two districts — the 1st and the 6th — were guaranteed to Republicans since no Democrats filed for election. There were no districts guaranteed to Democrats because no Republicans filed. Eight candidates — two Democrats and six Republicans — ran in the 5th district, more than in any other.
