The 1962 United States House of Representatives elections was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1962, which occurred in the middle of President John F. Kennedy's term. As in most midterm elections, Kennedy's Democratic Party lost seats to the opposition Republican Party, but retained a majority. House Democrats were expected to lose their majority, but the resolution over the Cuban Missile Crisis just a few weeks prior, led to a rebound in approval for the Democrats under President Kennedy.
The number of seats up for election went back to 435, in accordance with reapportionment resulting from the 1960 census. (The membership had been increased temporarily to 437 in 1959, providing 1 seat each for new states of Alaska and Hawaii, while the other 435 seats continued with the reapportionment resulting from the 1950 census.)
Notable freshman included future Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld (R-Illinois), future Commerce and Interior Secretary Rogers Morton, future Senator and Labor Secretary Bill Brock, future Senators Edward Gurney, Spark Matsunaga, Louis C. Wyman, Jim Broyhill, and Robert Taft Jr., former Senator Claude Pepper, future Lieutenant Governor of Hawaii Thomas Gill, future Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota Alec G. Olson, and future Secretary of the Army John Otho Marsh Jr..
