Each state set its own date for its elections to the House of Representatives, either before or after the first session of the 8th United States Congress convened on October 17, 1803. They occurred during President Thomas Jefferson's first term in office. With the addition of the new state of Ohio's representatives, and the congressional reapportionment based on the 1800 United States census, the size of the House increased from 106 to 142 seats. The greatest population growth revealed in the 1800 census was in territories that constituted the western regions of the country at the time, a tremendous boost for Democratic-Republican candidates. Nearly all of the new seats created in the reapportionment went to Democratic-Republicans, closely aligned as they were with the agrarian interests of Western farmers. As a result, the Democratic-Republicans won the largest proportion of seats that either they or the competing Federalists had ever been able to secure in any earlier Congress, a supermajority greater than two-thirds of the total number. Election summaries These elections were the first following reapportionment after the 1800 census. Thirty-five new seats were added in reapportionment,2 128 with three states having no change in apportionment, and thirteen states gaining between 1 and 7 seats. One further seat was added for the new state of Ohio, which is included in this table below.2 175 + ↓ 102 40 Democratic-Republican Federalist State Type Date Totalseats Democratic-Republican Federalist Seats Change Seats Change Seats Change New York Districts April 26–29, 1802 17 7 12 6 5 1 Connecticut At-large August 20, 1802 7 0 7 New Hampshire At-large August 30, 1802 5 1 0 5 1 Rhode Island At-large August 31, 1802 2 2 0 Georgia At-large October 4, 1802 4 2 4 2 0 Delaware At-large October 5, 1802 1 1 1 0 1 Pennsylvania Districts October 12, 1802 18 5 18 8 0 3 Massachusetts District November 1, 1802Majority required for election, which requirement was not met in one district, necessitating two additional trials held on January 24 and April 3, 1803 17 3 7 10 3 Vermont Districts December 13, 1802Majority required for election, which was not met in two districts.
