1812 United States House of Representatives election in Vermont
(Redirected from United States House of Representatives election in Vermont, 1812)
Vermont gained two seats after the 1810 census. Rather than re-district, however, Vermont replaced its districts with a single at-large district. It would continue to use an at-large district in 1814, 1816, and 1818, then one more time in 1822 (with 5 seats).
