List of United States Representatives from Delaware


This is a Complete list of members of the United States House of Representatives from Delaware.

Elections are by a popular vote originally elected on the first Tuesday of October, but after 1831 on the first Tuesday after November 1.

Terms began on the subsequent March 4 until 1935, from when they began on January 3.

Delaware has had only one U.S. Representative, except for 10 years between 1813 and 1823, when there was a second U.S. Representative. This person was elected statewide, at-large, on the same ballot as the first U.S. Representative. The two candidates with the highest number of votes were elected.

From 1813 to 1823, Delaware elected two members of the United States House of Representatives. Both were elected statewide at-large. This is a list of the four men who held that second seat during that decade.

As of January 2017, there are six former members of the U.S. House of Representatives from the U.S. State of Delaware that are currently living. The most recent representative to die was William V. Roth Jr. (1967-1970) on December 13, 2003.
