UNITED STATES HOUSE ELECTION, 1926
(Redirected from U.S. House election, 1926)
The 'U.S. House election, 1926' was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1926 which occurred in the middle of President Calvin Coolidge's second term.
As in many midterm elections, Coolidge's Republican Party lost seats to the opposition Democratic Party, but it retained a majority. Although Republican pro-business practices led to the loss of several districts in pro-labor regions, the burgeoning economy helped Republicans to remain in power. The small, populist Farmer-Labor Party also held two seats following the election.
