The 1992 election to the United States House of Representatives took place on November 3, 1992, parallel to the presidential election. The Democratic Party candidate , Bill Clinton , emerged victorious from the presidential election . In the House of Representatives elections, however, the Democrats lost a total of nine seats to the Republicans . Partly also the redistribution of electoral district boundaries (as was reason for redistricting ) due to the census called in 1990.

As the only non-party candidate, Bernie Sanders was again successful in Vermont .
