The U.S. House election, 1962 was an election for the United States House of Representatives in 1962, which occurred in the middle of President John F. Kennedy''s term. As in most midterm elections, Kennedy''s Democratic Party lost several seats to the opposition Republican Party, but retained a majority. A notable freshman was future Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld (R-Illinois). This may have been a backlash to the major Democratic gains in the previous election. An end to the economic down turn of the middle portion of the decade was also a factor. Nonetheless, the Democrats retained a clear majority in the House. Notable freshmen included future Senate Majority Leader and presidential candidate Bob Dole (R-Kan.) and future independent presidential candidate John B. Anderson (R-Ill.).
