The 1918 United States House of Representatives elections were held November 5, 1918, which occurred in the middle of President Woodrow Wilson's second term. With the country in World War I (contrary to previous promises by Wilson), and Wilson's personal popularity ebbing, the Republicans gained 25 seats and took over control of the House from Wilson's Democrats. Internal divide among Democratic leadership over aspects related to payment of the war also decreased the unity of the party, which had been the organization's strength during the decade. The Progressive Party also disappeared, with its former members generally becoming Democrats. Minnesota's Farmer–Labor Party, a descendant of populism, also gained its very first seat.

  • Bei den Wahlen zum Repräsentantenhaus der Vereinigten Staaten 1918 wurden am 5. November 1918 wurden in den Vereinigten Staaten die Abgeordneten des Repräsentantenhauses gewählt. Im Bundesstaat Maine fanden die Wahlen bereits am 9. September statt. Die Wahlen waren Teil der allgemeinen Wahlen zum 66. Kongress der Vereinigten Staaten in jenem Jahr, bei denen auch ein Drittel der US-Senatoren gewählt wurden. Da die Wahlen etwa in der Mitte der zweiten Amtszeit des Demokratischen Präsidenten Woodrow Wilson stattfanden (Midterm Election), galten sie auch als Votum über die bisherige Politik des Präsidenten.
