The1810–11 United States House of Representatives elections were held on various dates in various states between April 24, 1810, and August 2, 1811. Each state set its own date for its elections to theHouse of Representatives before the first session of the12th United States Congress convened on November 4, 1811. They occurred during PresidentJames Madison's first term. Elections were held for all 142 seats, representing 17 states.

One newly elected Representative,Henry Clay, also was electedSpeaker.

With the repeal of theEmbargo Act of 1807, the economy improved. The oppositionFederalists lost voter support and theDemocratic-Republicans recovered a supermajority.

New Hampshire law required a candidate to receive votes from a majority of voters (10%). In the initial election, only two candidates won a majority, so a second election was held in April 1811 for the remaining three seats, after the congressional term began but before the Congress formally convened. The data from the source used give majorities to all the top five candidates, suggesting that the data are incomplete.
