- United States House of Representatives elections, 1836
The U.S. House election, 1836 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1836.
Although Democrat Martin Van Buren was elected president, the Democrats continued to lose seats in the House. The Whigs played off the unpopularity of Jackson's refusal to compromise with Congress or cooperate with the Supreme Court, as well as the continuing decline of the single-issue Anti-Masonic (based on the distrust of Freemasonry) and Nullifier (based on the principle of states' rights) parties. Despite Whig gains, the Democrats held on to a majority.
