The U.S. House election, 1930 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1930 which occurred in the middle of President Herbert Hoover's term. With the Great Depression in full swing, Hoover's personal popularity was extremely low, and his Republican Party lost a net of 52 seats to the Democratic Party.
Although the Republicans retained a narrow majority from the election, they lost a number of special elections following the deaths of 19 Representatives-elect. This resulted in the new chamber having a Democratic majority.
