The 1946 United States House of Representatives elections took place 19 months after President Harry S. Truman assumed office upon the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Truman was vice president under President Franklin D. Roosevelt and was thrust into the presidency following Roosevelt's death. Truman did not garner the same support as the deceased president. Democrats had controlled Congress since 1931, for 16 years, and Roosevelt had been elected to a record four terms in office. The 1946 election resulted in Republicans picking up 55 seats to win majority control. Joseph Martin, Republican of Massachusetts, became Speaker of the House, exchanging places with Sam Rayburn, Democrat of Texas, who became the new Minority Leader. The Democratic defeat was the largest since they were trounced

  • Bei den Wahlen zum Repräsentantenhaus der Vereinigten Staaten 1946 wurden am 5. November 1946 die Abgeordneten des Repräsentantenhauses gewählt. Im Bundesstaat Maine fand die Wahl bereits am 9. September statt. Die Wahlen waren Teil der allgemeinen Wahlen zum 80. Kongress der Vereinigten Staaten in jenem Jahr, bei denen auch ein Drittel der US-Senatoren gewählt wurden. Da die Wahl etwa in der Mitte der ersten Amtszeit des Demokratischen Präsidenten Harry S. Truman stattfand (Midterm Election), galt sie auch als Votum über Trumans bisherige Politik. (de)
