United States House of Representatives elections, 1824

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The elections for the United States House of Representatives in 1824 coincided with the contentious presidential election of that year. There were 213 seats in the House up for election, and those elected served in the 19th United States Congress that convened on December 5, 1825. While the bulk of states held their elections in 1824, seven states scheduled their general elections at various times during 1825.[1]

By 1824, the Federalist Party had disbanded and the Democratic-Republican Party, which had become the only major political party, was becoming increasingly divided. The party fractured after the 1824 presidential election between those who supported the new president, John Quincy Adams, and those who supported Andrew Jackson. Jackson was defeated after the House decided the contested election in favor of Adams. Representatives who supported Adams won a slim majority in the House, and would later form the National Republican Party in 1828. Jackson supporters continued calling themselves Democratic-Republicans, and later became the Democratic Party in 1832.[1]
