Anyone know where I can the number of Republicans and Democrats in the House and Senate by year (1992, 1994, 1996, etc.)?

Senate - highest number of GOP seats since the 1928 elections

House - highest number of GOP seats since the 1946 elections

Also, Bush's % of the vote beats every Democrat since Lyndon Johnson  :-)

I mean due to election.

Those TX seats are being treated as GOP seats. What's your point?

I said it's the highest we've had since 1928. I didn't say it was higher than any other election since then.

And again, I said as the result of an election. Party flips in between elections don't count.

Has any activist court ever tried ruling that Representatives have to be elected by equal population districts?

A federal rule is unconstitutional, but the Supreme Court wouldn't care.

Well, it's not as if the Democrats have never DeLayed a state.
