U.S. House election, 2004



         




Elections to the 109th United States House of Representatives were held on November 2, 2004. The House of Representatives has 435 seats; in the 108th Congress, Republicans held 227 seats, Democrats held 205, with two Republican vacancies and one independent. As a consequence of this election, the 109th United States House of Representatives will be composed of 232 Republicans, 202 Democrats and one independent, Bernard Sanders of Vermont (who usually votes with the Democrats). The Republicans maintained their control of both houses of Congress, and built up their majorities by a few seats.

Of the five seats the Republicans' gained, three seats can be attributed to a special redistricting plan in Texas led by [Repulbican] Representative Tom DeLay. His redistricting plan was put into action, turning five Democratic seats Republican. A mid-decade redistricting like this was unprecedented.

Outside of Texas, Democrats gained two seats net, gaining open seats in Colorado and New York and ousting incumbents in Georgia and Illinois. Republicans gained an open seat in Kentucky and ousted an incumbent in Indiana. Two seats in Louisiana swapped party control.
