1880 House Background
The 1880 U.S. House election chose members for the House of Representatives for the Congress beginning the following January. The app includes an interactive state-level results map for this cycle.
Key Notes
- Unlike the Senate, every voting House seat is normally up for election every two years.
- District boundaries can change after each census, so historical House maps depend on the correct district geography for that cycle.
