There were two seats up for election. A vacant seat on the court was up for election after the retirement of Judge Jacqueline Shogan in 2021. A second seat was scheduled for election due to the impending mandatory retirement of Judge Emeritus John T. Bender on December 31, 2023.[19]

The election of Jill Beck and Timika Lane, flips the partisan makeup of the Superior Court, from a 8–7 Republican majority, to a 9–6 Democratic majority.[20] However, the makeup was decreased to a 8–6 Democratic majority when Judge Dan McCaffery vacated his seat after being elected to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
