2016 United States House Elections (Santorum in the House)

The 2016 United States House of Representatives Elections were held on November 8, 2016, to elect representatives for all 435 congressional districts across each of the 50 U.S. states. These elections coincided with the election of President Richard Santorum, although his party lost seats in the US Senate. The winners of this election served in the 115th Congress, with seats apportioned among the states based on the 2010 United States Census. In October 2015, the House elected a new Speaker, Republican Paul Ryan, who was re-elected in the new term. Democrat Nancy Pelosi continued to lead her party as Minority Leader. Elections were also held on the same day for the U.S. Senate, many governors, and other state and local elections.
