The 2022 Nevada Attorney General election took place on November 8, 2022, to elect the Attorney General of Nevada. Incumbent Democratic Attorney General Aaron Ford won re-election to a second term in office. As Ford narrowly won Carson City, this was the first time since 2014 that a Democrat had won a county or county-equivalent outside of Clark or Washoe County. Ford's performance was also the best for a Nevada Democrat in a statewide race in 2022, as all other successful Democratic candidates for statewide races won with pluralities of the vote.
John Kennedy was disqualified from running after he did not meet the requirement for candidates to be members of the State Bar of Nevada. As he was disqualified after general election ballots had already been printed, he remained on the ballot, but any votes he received did not count.[5]
