How is it this page shows that the GOP had 236 seats from the 1994 elections, yet all the pages about the 1994 elections and the 104th Congress show the GOP only holding 230 seats? Lestatdelc 20:22, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Have to check the exact number in detail, but 5 representatives (Southern conservative Dems) switched party during the term according to Party switching in the United States. Not sure where six comes from, maybe an additional unlisted switcher or a by-election. Willhsmit 00:34, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
