1810–1811 United States House of Representatives election in New Hampshire

Last updated

New Hampshire law required a candidate to receive votes from a majority of voters (10%). In the August 27, 1810 initial election, only two candidates won a majority, so a second election was held April 1, 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.
