United States congressional delegations from Virginia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
These are tables of congressional delegations from Virginia to the United States Senate and United States House of Representatives.
Virginia has undergone so many demographic changes that in some cases, a district often is not a direct continuation of the same numbered district before reapportionment. For example, the current 7th District covers roughly the same geographic area of what was the 3rd District prior to redistricting after the 1990 Census.

Following the 1860 census and the separation of West Virginia, two seats were eliminated, leaving Virginia with 9 seats. For most of this decade, however, Virginian representatives were not seated in Congress because of Virginia's secession in the Civil War.

- ^ The delegation during the 37th Congress has incomplete district data. In some sources, Congressmen Carlile and Whaley are shown as both starting on March 4, 1861 — which is the starting date of that Congress — but other sources list them as both being elected in {{ushr|Virginia|11|district 11{{ which contradicts that they both served simultaneously.
