Template:Short description Template:Use mdy dates
Template:For Template:Infobox election The 2002 United States House of Representatives elections were held on November 5, 2002, in the middle of President George W. Bush's first term, to elect U.S. Representatives to serve in the 108th United States Congress. This was the first congressional election using districts drawn up during the 2000 United States redistricting cycle on the basis of the 2000 census.
Although it was a midterm election under a Republican president, the Republican Party made a net gain of eight seats, giving the party their largest majority since 1995. Some speculate that this may have been due to increased support for the president's party in the wake of the September 11 attacks.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
As of 2024, it is the most recent midterm election in which the president's party did not lose control of the House, and gain seats in the House. It is also the only midterm election from 1982 to present in which the president's party did not lose control of the House as Republicans did not win House majority in 1982 nor 1986 for Ronald Reagan, 1990 for George H. W. Bush, 2006 for George W. Bush, and 2018 for Donald Trump. Meanwhile Democrats did not win House majority in 1994 nor 1998 for Bill Clinton, 2010 nor 2014 for Barack Obama, and 2022 for Joe Biden.
