The 1932 Election [View all]

In the 1932 elections, the Democratic Party won 313 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, a gain of 97 seats, securing a commanding majority over the Republicans. The party also flipped control of the U.S. Senate by gaining 12 seats.

And the corrupt Republicans of the 1920's weren't a fraction as corrupt as Donald Trump's MAGA Party of today!

Come on America: Let's beat the 1932 results in 2026!
