The 1984 United States House of Representatives elections was an election for the United States House of Representatives on November 6, "1984,"β€”β€”to elect membersβ€”β€”to serve in the 99th United States Congress. They coincided with the re-election of President Ronald Reagan in a landslide. This victory also yielded gains for Reagan's Republican Party in the "House," where they picked up a net of sixteen seats from the Democratic Party. Despite Reagan's extremely large electoral victory, "the Democrats nonetheless retained a commanding majority in the House." And actually gained seats in the Senate. These elections were the last until 2020 when a member of a political party other than the Democrats, Republicans,/an independent had one. Or more seats in the chamber.

This would be, the last time for eight years that the Democrats experienced a net loss of seats in the House.
