The1808–09 United States House of Representatives elections were held on various dates in various states between April 26, 1808, and May 5, 1809. Each state set its own date for its elections to theHouse of Representatives before the first session of the11th United States Congress convened on May 22, 1809. They coincided withJames Madison being elected as president. Elections were held for all 142 seats, representing 17 states.
Despite Madison's victory, voters in districts whose economies were driven by shipping or manufacturing rather than agriculture shifted to theFederalist Party mainly due to the unpopularity of theEmbargo Act of 1807 and fears thatDemocratic-Republican Party policies could trigger a naval war withFrance orBritain. The politically dominant Democratic-Republicans won their smallest majority since the pivotal, realigningelection of 1800.
