Incumbent Speaker Tom Foley Democratic Speaker-elect Newt Gingrich Republican

The U.S. House election, 1994 was an election for the United States House of Representatives on November 8, 1994, in the middle of President Bill Clinton's first term. As a result of a 54-seat swing in membership from Democrats to Republicans, the Republican Party gained a majority of seats in the House for the first time since 1954.

The Democratic Party had run the House for all but 4 of the preceding 72 years. The Republican Party, united behind Newt Gingrich's Contract with America, which promised floor votes on various popular and institutional reforms, was able to capitalize on the perception that the House leadership was corrupt, as well as the dissatisfaction of conservative and many independent voters with President Clinton's actions (including a failed attempt at universal health care and gun control measures).

In a historic election, House Speaker Tom Foley (D-Washington) was defeated for re-election in his district, becoming the first Speaker of the House to fail to win re-election since the era of the American Civil War. Other major upsets included the defeat of powerful long-serving Representatives such as Ways and Means Chairman Dan Rostenkowski (D-Illinois) and Judiciary Chairman Jack Brooks (D-Texas). In all, 34 incumbents (all Democrats) were defeated, though several of them (like David Price of North Carolina, Ted Strickland of Ohio, and Jay Inslee of Washington) regained seats in later elections; Maria Cantwell of Washington won a U.S. Senate race in 2000. Republicans also won some seats that were left open by retiring Democrats. Democrats won four Republican-held seats where the incumbents were stepping down (Maine, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island). Democrats who were elected in this situation included current Rhode Island congressman and Kennedy family member Patrick J. Kennedy and current Maine governor John Baldacci. No Republican incumbent lost his or her seat in 1994.

Minority whip Newt Gingrich (R-Georgia), re-elected in the Republican landslide, became Speaker (previous Minority Leader Robert H. Michel having retired). Former Majority Leader Dick Gephardt (D-Missouri) became minority leader. The new Republican leadership in the House promised to bring a dozen legislative proposals to a vote in the first 100 days of the session, although the Senate did not always follow suit.

Religious right

Evangelicals were an important group within the electorate and a significant voting bloc in the Republican party. The national exit poll by Mitofsky International showed 27% of all voters identified themselves as a born-again or evangelical Christians, up from 18% in 1988 and 24% in 1992. Republican House candidates outpolled Democrats among white evangelicals by a massive 52 points, 76% to 24%.^[1]

According to a survey sponsored by the Christian Coalition, 33 percent of the 1994 voters were "religious conservatives," up from 24 percent in 1992 and 18 percent in 1988 [CQ Weekly Report, November 19, 1994, p3364); in the 1994 exit poll, 38 percent identified themselves as "conservatives," compared with 30 percent in 1992.^[2]

Incumbents defeated

Every Republican incumbent seeking re-election won (though New York Congressman David A. Levy had been defeated in his primary by a more-conservative GOP challenger). 34 incumbent Democrats were defeated in 1994, with Democrats from Washington State losing the most seats (5):

- Karan English (Arizona 6, elected in 1992)

- Dan Hamburg (California 1, elected in 1992)

- Richard H. Lehman (California 19, elected in 1982)

- Lynn Schenk (California 49, elected in 1992)

- George "Buddy" Darden (Georgia 7, elected in 1982)

- Clete Donald Johnson, Jr. (Georgia 10, elected in 1992)

- Larry LaRocco (Idaho 1, elected in 1990)

- Dan Rostenkowski (Illinois 5, elected in 1958) - lost his seat despite being a 36 year veteran of the house and a chairman of an important house committee. His heavily Democratic Chicago district turned against him after he was indicted on corruption charges for his key role in the Congressional Post Office scandal. His political downfall was portrayed by Republicans as emblematic of Democratic corruption.

- Jill Long (Indiana 4, elected in 1988)

- Frank McCloskey (Indiana 8, elected in 1982)

- Neal Edward Smith (Iowa 4, elected in 1958) - also a major upset due to Smith's seniority.

- Dan Glickman (Kansas 4, elected in 1976)

- Thomas Barlow (Kentucky 1, elected in 1992)

- Peter Hoagland (Nebraska 2, elected in 1988)

- James Bilbray (Nevada 1, elected in 1986)

- Dick Swett (New Hampshire 2, elected in 1990)

- Herb Klein (New Jersey 8, elected in 1992)

- George Hochbrueckner (New York 1, elected in 1986)

- Martin Lancaster (North Carolina 3, elected in 1986)

- David Price (North Carolina 4, elected in 1986)

- David S. Mann (Ohio 1, elected in 1992)

- Ted Strickland (Ohio 6, elected in 1992)

- Eric Fingerhut (Ohio 19, elected in 1992)

- Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky (Pennsylvania 13, elected in 1992)

- Jack Brooks (Texas 9, elected in 1952) - voted out despite over 40 years experience in congress. His support of the Federal Assault Weapons Ban alienated conservative voters.

- Bill Sarpalius (Texas 13, elected in 1988)

- Karen Shepherd (Utah 2, elected in 1992)

- Leslie Byrne (Virginia 11, elected in 1992)

- Maria Cantwell (Washington 1, elected in 1992)

- Jolene Unsoeld (Washington 3, elected in 1988)

- Jay Inslee (Washington 4, elected in 1992)

- Tom Foley (Washington 5, elected in 1964) - one of the most historic defeats in congressional history; Foley had not only represented the Spokane area for thirty years, but was Speaker of the House, one of the most powerful men in D.C., so his defeat was symbolic of the entire 1994 election. (This was the first time since 1862 that a sitting Speaker was defeated in a re-election bid.)

- Mike Kreidler (Washington 9, elected in 1992)

- Peter Barca (Wisconsin 1, elected in 1993) - Barca's tight win in a 1993 special election in this "safely Democratic" district was a sign of things to come.
