They occurred in the middle of [[Democratic Party (United States)\|Democratic]] President [[Jimmy Carter]]'s term, amidst an [[energy crisis]] and rapid inflation. The Democratic Party lost a net of 15 seats to the [[Republican Party (United States)\|Republican Party]], and thus lost their [[Supermajority\|two-thirds supermajority]], but still maintained a large 277-seat majority. As of {{Currentyear}}, this was the last [[midterm election]] where the Democrats managed to maintain a majority in the House of Representatives under a Democratic president and the last midterm election in which a registered [[Third party (United States)\|third party]] member{{efn\|Representative [[William Carney (politician)\|William Carney]] of [[Long Island]], [[New York (state)\|New York]] a registered [[Conservative Party of New York\|Conservative Party]] member running with Republican support.}} was elected. ==Overall results== {\| style="width:~~100~~70%; text-align:center;" \|+ ↓ \|- style="color:white;" Line 107 ⟶ 103: \| {{party shading/Republican}} \| {{increase}} 2.5% \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other parties (United States)~~Independent}} \| Independents \| {{steady}} Line 117 ⟶ 113: \| {{decrease}} 0.2% \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~American ~~parties~~Independent ~~(United States)~~Party}} \| [[American Independent Party\|American Independent]] \| {{steady}} Line 157 ⟶ 153: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Liberal ~~parties~~Party (~~United~~New ~~States~~York)}} \| [[Liberal Party of New York\|Liberal]] \| {{steady}} Line 167 ⟶ 163: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Peace ~~parties~~and ~~(United~~Freedom ~~States)~~Party}} \| [[Peace and Freedom Party\|Peace and Freedom]] \| {{steady}} Line 177 ⟶ 173: \| {{increase}} 0.1% \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~American ~~parties~~Party (~~United States~~1969)}} \| [[American Party (1969)\|American]] \| {{steady}} Line 197 ⟶ 193: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Prohibition ~~parties~~Party (United States)}} \| [[Prohibition Party\|Prohibition]] \| {{steady}} Line 217 ⟶ 213: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Raza ~~parties~~Unida ~~(United States)~~Party}} \| [[Raza Unida Party\|La Raza Unida]] \| {{steady}} Line 227 ⟶ 223: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Liberty ~~parties~~Union ~~(United States)~~Party}} \| [[Liberty Union Party\|Liberty Union]] \| {{steady}} Line 237 ⟶ 233: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|Other ~~parties (United States)~~}} \| [[Peoples Independent Coalition Party\|Peoples Independent Coalition]] \| {{steady}} Line 247 ⟶ 243: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Workers ~~parties~~World ~~(United States)~~Party}} \| [[Workers Party (United States)\|Workers]] \| {{steady}} Line 267 ⟶ 263: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|Aloha Democratic Party ~~(United States)~~}} \| [[Aloha Democratic Party\|Aloha Democratic]] \| {{steady}} Line 277 ⟶ 273: \| {{steady}} \|- \| {{party color cell\|~~Other~~Betsy ~~parties~~Ross ~~(United States)~~Party}} \| [[Betsy Ross Party\|Betsy Ross]] \| {{steady}} Line 397 ⟶ 393: \| {{Party shading/Democratic}} \| Democratic \| [[1968 United States House of Representatives elections in New York\|1968]] \| {{Party shading/Republican}} \| Incumbent resigned December 31, 1977 to become [[Mayor of New York City]].<br/>New member [[1978 New York's 18th congressional district special election\|elected]] '''February 14, 1978'''.<br/>Winner was subsequently [[#New York\|re-elected in November]].<br/>'''Republican gain.'''. \| nowrap \| {{Plainlist \| * {{Aye}} '''[[Bill Green (New York politician)\|Bill Green]]''' (Republican) 50.5% Line 437 ⟶ 433: \|- \| {{ushr\|Alabama\|1\|X}} \| [[Jack Edwards (~~Alabama~~American politician)\|Jack Edwards]] \| {{Party shading/Republican}} \| Republican \| [[1964 United States House of Representatives elections in Alabama\|1964]] \| Incumbent re-elected. \| nowrap \| {{Plainlist \| * {{Aye}} '''[[Jack Edwards (~~Alabama~~American politician)\|Jack Edwards]]''' (Republican) 63.9% * L.
