  • Bei den Wahlen zum Repräsentantenhaus der Vereinigten Staaten 1966 wurden am 8. November 1966 die Abgeordneten des Repräsentantenhauses der Vereinigten Staaten gewählt. Die Wahlen waren Teil der allgemeinen Wahlen zum 90. 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 ersten vollen Amtszeit des demokratischen Präsidenten Lyndon B. Johnson stattfanden (Midterm Election), galten sie auch als Votum über die bisherige Politik des Präsidenten. (de)
