The 1972 United States House of Representatives elections were held on November 7, 1972, to elect U.S. Representatives to serve in the 93rd United States Congress. This was the first election held after the 1970 United States redistricting cycle. It coincided with the landslide reelection victory of President Richard M. Nixon. Nixon's Republican Party managed to gain a net of twelve House of Representatives seats from the Democratic Party, although the Democrats retained a majority.

This was the first election in which citizens at least 18 years of age (instead of 21 and older) could vote, due to the recent passage of the 26th Amendment. This was the last time until 2022 that a Democrat would win a House seat in Alaska,{{Cite web |last=Solender |first=Andrew |date=September 1, 2022 |title=Democrat Mary Peltola defeats Sarah Palin in Alaska special election |url=https://www.axios.com/2022/09/01/democrat-mary-peltola-wins-upset-in-alaska-special-election |access-date=September 1, 2022 |website=Axios |language=en}} and the first time since 1888 that a Republican won a House seat in Louisiana.{{cite news|title=Parish Follows Trend: Local Voters Support Nixon, Treen, Johnston|page=1|work=The St. Charles Herald|location=Hahnville, Louisiana|date=November 9, 1972}}

Special elections

Six special elections were also held throughout the year, six before November and one concurrent with the November general election.

Louisiana

{{Main|1972 United States House of Representatives elections in Louisiana}}

{{See also|List of United States representatives from Louisiana|1972 United States Senate election in Louisiana}}

Louisiana stayed at eight house seats following the 1970 census, but the Eighth District's boundaries were radically altered. New governor Edwin W. Edwards ordered the district to take in territory far to the south and east of its traditional base of Alexandria, which included many African-American and progressive white voters. The change was largely regarded as an election deal between Edwards and former Rep. Gillis Long, who finished third in the Democratic Primary in the 1971 Louisiana Governor's Election behind Edwards and J. Bennett Johnston. Long easily won back the Eighth District seat he lost in 1964 to cousin Speedy Long. Speedy Long retired when his home of LaSalle Parish was shifted to the Fifth District, where incumbent Otto Passman was entrenched.
