The 1814–15 United States House of Representatives elections were held on various dates in various states between April 26, 1814, and August 10, 1815. Each state set its own date for its elections to the House of Representatives before the first session of the 14th United States Congress convened on December 4, 1815. They occurred during President James Madison's second term. Elections were held for all 182 seats, representing 18 states.

This election happened in the middle of the War of 1812. The war was extremely unpopular in certain regions, particularly New England. The failed American invasion of Upper Canada (Ontario) and the 1814 Burning of Washington were embarrassing military setbacks, but the Democratic-Republican Party remained dominant and the declining Federalist Party was unable to convert war opposition into political gain.

This election marked the first in American history where the incumbent president's party gained House seats in a midterm election while still losing seats in the Senate, this happened again in 1822 and 1902.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Excludes states admitted during the 14th Congress
  2. ^ a b c Includes late elections
  3. ^ Massachusetts law required a majority vote for election, which was not met in two districts, requiring a second election, held on January 6, 1815.
  4. ^ a b c d e f g h i Only candidates with at least 1% of the vote listed.
  5. ^ Samuel Smith's resignation is not mentioned in the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress.[6]
  6. ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p Numbers of votes missing or incomplete in source.
  7. ^ a b Henry Clay was elected to the 2nd district, which he had represented in the 12th and 13th Congresses until he resigned to accept a position as diplomatic envoy to Great Britain. He was still out of the country at the time of the general election. Kentucky's governor, unsure of the implications of a situation in which Clay held the office of United States Representative and diplomatic envoy simultaneously, declared his seat vacant. A subsequent special election was held in 1815, which Clay won without opposition, See above. Although the district was unrepresented from the March 4, 1815 (the start of the 14th Congress) until October 30, 1815, the 14th Congress did not meet until December 4, 1815[14] so there was no effective vacancy.
  8. ^ a b Won special election to fill vacancy in 13th Congress.
  9. ^ a b The source indicates uncertainty as to whether Farrow ran in 1814.
  10. ^ a b Source did not provide full name.
