The 2012 United States House of Representatives elections were held on November 6, 2012. Elections were held for all 435 seats, representing the 50 U.S. states, and also for the delegates from the District of Columbia and five major U.S. territories.
House Democrats won a narrow plurality of the popular vote, but House Republicans were able to retain a solid majority thanks to their advantage in congressional redistricting. The last time the majority party in the House was unable to receive a plurality of the popular vote was in 1996.
The winners of this election cycle will serve in the 113th United States Congress. This was the first congressional election using congressional districts apportioned based on the 2010 United States Census.

Incumbents defeated
Due to redistricting, many incumbents are forced to compete against each other in the same district, which will result in a higher than usual number of incumbents being defeated in primaries.

Pre-election analysis and selected results
The following are the predictions for House districts where at least one out of the Cook Political Report, the Rothenberg Political Report, Roll Call, and Sabato's Crystal Ball did not agree that the district was "safe Democrat" or "safe Republican". Ratings from the New York Times are also included. Incumbents not running for re-election have parentheses around their name; "(Open)" means that the seat was created in a state that gained one or more seats as the result of the 2010 census; where two incumbents are shown, that is also because of redistricting.)
