John G. Carlisle Democratic
The 1884 United States House of Representatives elections were held for the most part on November 4, 1884, with four states holding theirs early between June and October. They coincided with the election of President Grover Cleveland. Elections were held for 325 seats of the United States House of Representatives, representing 38 states, to serve in the 49th United States Congress. Special elections were also held throughout the year.
In spite of Cleveland's victory, the opposition Republican Party gained back some of the seats lost in 1882, but the Democratic Party retained a majority in the House. Republicans were able to make these slight gains by connecting their pro-business and industry message with progress. The Democrats were also hindered by the Panic of 1884, but were not greatly affected by it since the depression ended quickly.
In 1884, four states, with 28 seats among them, held elections early:
Two new districts were created for the seats gained in the 1882 reapportionment, eliminating the at-large district that had been created for them.
Wisconsin elected nine members of congress on Election Day, November 4, 1884.[30][31]
