The1880 United States House of Representatives elections were held for the most part on November 2, 1880, with five states holding theirs early between June and October. They coincided with the1880 presidential election which was won byJames A. Garfield, who was a member of the House at the time. Elections were held for 293 seats of theUnited States House of Representatives, representing 38 states, to serve in the47th United States Congress. This was the first time that every state held their regular House elections on or beforeElection Day. Special elections were also held throughout the year.
Issues such asCivil War loyalties,tariffs,graft andcorruption dominated the year's elections, though none became substantive as a national issue. The economy was growing stronger after emerging from along Depression. It was in this political environment that Garfield'sRepublican Party gained 19 seats and regained control of the House from theDemocratic Party. TheGreenback Party, an emerging party of workers and farmers, also lost seats in these elections, after gaining more than a dozen two years earlier.[3][4]

In 1845, Congress passed a law providing for auniform nationwide date for choosing Presidential electors.[5] This law did not affect election dates for Congress, which remained within the jurisdiction of State governments, but over time, the States moved their Congressional elections to this date as well.
In 1880, no states held their elections after Election Day for the first time (California was the last state to hold late elections, in 1878). But 5 states, with 35 seats among them, held their elections before the rest of the states:
