At the beginning of the regular session, the Republican Party held an 80–69 advantage with one vacancy that was filled by the GOP, creating an 81–69 Republican majority (reflected above). After the Regular Session, one Representative left the GOP and joined the Democratic Party and another Republican resigned and was replaced by a Democrat in a special election, making the tally 79–71. In February, one Democrat resigned, whose vacancy was filled by another Democrat, restoring the 79–71 tally before a GOP member of the House died, bringing the final composition to 78–71 with one vacancy.
