The '''September 2022 Cascadia general election''' was the second monthly general election in [[Aurora:California|Cascadia]] to elect the [[Governor of Cascadia]] and all twelve seats in the [[Legislature of Cascadia|House of Representatives]] for one-month terms. It was held from September 16 to September 17, 2022. [[ViolentVampire]] and [[SayerQT#SayerQT on Terra Aurora|SayerQT]] were elected as the 2nd Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Cascadia. This was the second of three elections in Cascadia to not be held on the third Sunday of a month, prior to the ratification of the 2nd amendment to the first Constitution of Cascadia.


Incumbent President [[SayerQT]] did not stand for re-election. The presidential election resulted in a victory for Treasurer [[ViolentVampire]], receiving a record 95.2% of the vote. Voter turnout was down slightly at 46.7% of registered voters. The house elections resulted in incumbents winning just half of the seats, with Incumbents winning just around 52% of first-preference votes. These were also the first elections for the House of Representatives held under Proportional Representation instead of First-past-the-post, put into place by the Representation of the People Act passed earlier that month.
