They were held for the most part on November 3, 1942, while Maine held theirs on September 14. This was the first election after the congressional reapportionment based on the 1940 census, and was held in the middle of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's third term. With involvement in World War II, it was the first wartime election in the United States since 1918.Only 65% of Vote is Likely Today The New York Times November 3, 1942 James A.

The election was the second of four times in the 20th century in which either party won the House majority without winning the popular vote, with the other three instances occurring in 1914, 1952, and 1996; Democrats won the House majority without winning the popular vote in the former election, while Republicans did so in the latter two.https://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/03/opinion/sunday/the-great-gerrymander-of-2012.html The Great Gerrymander of 2012 The New York Times Sam Wang February 2, 2013 May 29, 2013https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2012/11/12/in-1996-house-democrats-also-won-the-popular-vote-but-remained-in-the-minority In 1996, House Democrats also won the popular vote but remained in the minority (kind of) Washingtonpost.com November 12, 2012 December 3, 2012 This was the most successful congressional election for Republicans since 1930, and the first time since that election cycle that the House GOP actually won the popular vote.Harding John 1944 The 1942 Congressional Elections https://www.cambridge.org/core/product/identifier/S0003055400043264/type/journal_article American Political Science Review en 38 1 41–58 10.2307/1949422 1949422 147042082 0003-0554 subscription The main factor that led to the Republican gains during this election cycle was dissatisfaction with the conduct of America's war effort in World War II. 2026, this was the last time the House of Representatives was made up of five parties. This was also the smallest House majority that the Democrats had up until the 2020 elections. Voter turnout was historically low for the time, which was attributed to the absence of military men and the apathy of workers at war production plants, many of whom had failed to re-register to vote in their new communities or become accustomed to local candidates.
