1822–1823 United States House of Representatives election in New Hampshire
(Redirected from 1822 United States House of Representatives election in New Hampshire)
New Hampshire elected its members August 26, 1822. New Hampshire law required a candidate to receive votes from a majority of voters for election, that is 1/12 of votes. Only five candidates received the requisite majority, and so a May 11, 1823 run-off election was held for the sixth seat.
