1994 United States House of Representatives elections
The 1994 United States House of Representatives elections (also known as the Republican Revolution) were held on November 8, 1994, in the middle of President Bill Clinton's first term. As a result of a 54-seat swing in membership from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party, Republicans gained a majority of seats in the United States House of Representatives for the first time since 1952 in what was known as the Republican Revolution. It was also the largest seat gain for the party since 1946, and the largest for either party since 1948, and characterized a political realignment in American politics.

Democrats had run the House since 1955, and for all but four years (1947–49 and 1953–55) since 1931. But in 1994 the Republican Party ran against President Clinton's proposed healthcare reform.[1] The Republicans argued that Clinton had abandoned the centrist New Democrat platform he campaigned on during the 1992 Presidential election and reverted to big government solutions. The GOP ran on Newt Gingrich's Contract with America.
The incumbent Speaker of the House, Democrat Tom Foley, lost re-election in his district, becoming the first sitting Speaker to do so since Galusha Grow in 1863.[2] Other major upsets included the defeat of powerful long-serving Representatives such as Ways and Means Chairman Dan Rostenkowski and Judiciary Chairman Jack Brooks. In all, 34 incumbents, all Democrats, were defeated. Republicans also won a number of seats held by retiring Democrats. No Republican incumbents lost re-election, but Democrats won four open Republican-held seats. NFL Hall of Famer Steve Largent was elected in Oklahoma and singer Sonny Bono was elected in California.
Robert H. Michel, the Republican Minority Leader, chose to retire due to pressure from the more conservative members of the Republican caucus. Dick Cheney had served as the Minority Whip and Michel supported having Edward Rell Madigan replace him, but the position was instead given to Gingrich, who would later be selected to become Speaker.[3] The incumbent Democratic Majority Leader, Dick Gephardt, became Minority Leader. The new House leadership, under the Republicans, promised to bring a dozen legislative proposals to a vote in the first 100 days of the session, although the Senate did not always follow suit. In a significant political realignment, the South underwent a dramatic transformation. Before the election, House Democrats outnumbered House Republicans in the South. Afterwards, with the Republicans having picked up a total of 19 Southern seats, they were able to outnumber Democrats in the South for the first time since Reconstruction.[4] The Republicans would go on to remain the majority party of the House for the following 12 years, until the 2006 elections. The Republicans have won at least 200 seats in every single House election since, with the sole exception of 2008.
As of 2022, this is the last congressional election in which Democrats won a House seat in Montana, as well as the last time Republicans won any House seats in Massachusetts.

Religious right
Evangelicals were an important group within the electorate and a significant voting block in the Republican party. The national exit poll by Mitofsky International showed 27% of all voters identified themselves as a born-again or evangelical Christians, up from 18% in 1988 and 24% in 1992. Republican House candidates outpolled Democrats among white evangelicals by a massive 52 points, 76% to 24%.[5]
According to a survey sponsored by the Christian Coalition, 33 percent of the 1994 voters were "religious conservatives," up from 24 percent in 1992 and 18 percent in 1988 (CQ Weekly Report), November 19, 1994, p. 3364; in the 1994 exit poll, 38 percent identified themselves as "conservatives," compared with 30 percent in 1992.[6]

The 1994 United States House of Representatives elections also known as the Republican Revolution were held on November 8 1994 in the middle of President Bill Clinton s first term As a result of a 54 seat swing in membership from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party Republicans gained a majority of seats in the United States House of Representatives for the first time since 1952 in what was known as the Republican Revolution It was also the largest seat gain for the party since 1946 and the largest for either party since 1948 and characterized a political realignment in American politics 1994 United States House of Representatives elections 1992 November 8 1994 1996 All 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives218 seats needed for a majority Majority party

49 and 1953 55 since 1931 But in 1994 the Republican Party ran against President Clinton s proposed healthcare reform 1 The Republicans argued that Clinton had abandoned the centrist New Democrat platform he campaigned on during the 1992 Presidential election and reverted to big government solutions The GOP ran on Newt Gingrich s Contract with America The incumbent Speaker of the House Democrat Tom Foley lost re election in his district becoming the first sitting Speaker to do so since Galusha Grow in 1863 2 Other major upsets included the defeat of powerful long serving Representatives such as Ways and Means Chairman Dan Rostenkowski and Judiciary Chairman Jack Brooks In all 34 incumbents all Democrats were defeated Republicans also won a number of seats held by retiring Democrats No Republican incumbents lost re election but Democrats won four open Republican held seats NFL Hall of Famer Steve Largent was elected in Oklahoma and singer Sonny Bono was elected in California Robert H Michel the Republican Minority Leader chose to retire due to pressure from the more conservative members of the Republican caucus Dick Cheney had served as the Minority Whip and Michel supported having Edward Rell Madigan replace him but the position was instead given to Gingrich who would later be selected to become Speaker 3 The incumbent Democratic Majority Leader Dick Gephardt became Minority Leader The new House leadership under the Republicans promised to bring a dozen legislative proposals to a vote in the first 100 days of the session although the Senate did not always follow suit In a significant political realignment the South underwent a dramatic transformation Before the election House Democrats outnumbered House Republicans in the South Afterwards with the Republicans having picked up a total of 19 Southern seats they were able to outnumber Democrats in the South for the first time since Reconstruction 4 The Republicans would go on to remain the majority party of the House for the following 12 years until the 2006 elections The Republicans have won at least 200 seats in every single House election since with the sole exception of 2008 As of 2022 this is the last congressional election in which Democrats won a House seat in Montana as well as the last time Republicans won any House seats in Massachusetts Contents 1 Voting patterns 1 1
