They occurred in the middle of President Ronald Reagan's second term in office, while he was still relatively popular with the American public. As in most mid-term elections, the president's party — in this case, the Republican Party — lost seats, with the Democratic Party gaining a net of five seats and cementing its majority. These results were not as dramatic as those in the Senate, where the Republicans lost control of the chamber to the Democrats. Overall results 393 incumbent members sought reelection, but 2 were defeated in primaries and 6 defeated in the general election for a total of 385 incumbents winning.Abramson Aldrich Rohde 1995 259 + ↓ 258 177 Democratic Republican Party Seats Seatpercentage Votepercentage Popular vote Lastelection(1984) Thiselection Netchange   Democratic 253 258 5 59.3% 54.3% 32,447,021   Republican 181 177 4 40.7% 44.4% 26,533,178   Independent 0 0 0.0% 0.2% 157,332  Libertarian 0 0 0.0% 0.2% 121,076   Conservative 1 0 1 0.0% 0.1% 58,712   Peace and Freedom 0 0 0.0% 0.1% 57,003   Right to Life 0 0 0.0% 0.1% 39,407   Others 0 0 0.0% 0.6% 344,668 Totals 435 435 100.0% 100.0% 59,758,397 Source: Election Statistics - Office of the Clerk Popular vote #ddd 900px 710px Democratic Democratic Party (US) 54.30 Republican Republican Party (US) 44.40 Libertarian Libertarian Party (US) 0.20 Others #777777 1.10 House seats #ddd 900px 710px Democratic Democratic Party (US) 59.31 Republican Republican Party (US) 40.69 thumb|400px| House seats by party holding plurality in state #00f 80%+ to 100% Democratic #f00 80%+ to 100% Republican #09f 60%+ to 80% Democratic #f66 60%+ to 80% Republican #0ff up to 60% Democratic #f99 up to 60% Republican thumb|400px| Change in House seats by party #00f 6+ Democratic gain #f00 6+ Republican gain #09f 3 to 5 Democratic gain #f66 3 to 5 Republican gain #0ff 1 to 2 Democratic gain #f99 1 to 2 Republican gain #ccc no net change Retiring incumbents A total of 40 representatives (19 Democrats and 21 Republicans) retired, 22 of whom (12 Democrats and 10 Republicans) retired to run for other offices.
