Talk:1996 United States House of Representatives elections

Untitled
How is it this page shows that the GOP had 236 seats from the 1994 elections, yet all the pages about the 1994 elections and the 104th Congress show the GOP only holding 230 seats? Lestatdelc 20:22, 15 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Have to check the exact number in detail, but 5 representatives (Southern conservative Dems) switched party during the term according to Party switching in the United States. Not sure where six comes from, maybe an additional unlisted switcher or a by-election. Willhsmit 00:34, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

who won the majority nation-wide vote?
The claim that the Democratic party won more total votes for representatives than the Republican party may not be true, but a mistake by not counting early voting in Louisiana. See United States House of Representatives elections, 2012 for references about the similar claim for 2012. TomS TDotO (talk) 17:11, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
