Las elecciones de 2002 para la Cámara de Representantes de los Estados Unidos se celebraron el 5 de noviembre de 2002, en medio del primer mandato del presidente George W. Bush . Aunque fue una elección de mitad de período bajo un presidente republicano, el Partido Republicano ganó ocho escaños netos, solidificando su mayoría. Algunos especulan que esto puede deberse al mayor apoyo al partido del presidente a raíz de los ataques del 11 de septiembre . [1]

This was one of two mid-term elections in which the party of the incumbent president increased their number of seats in both the House and the Senate (the other such mid-term elections were in 1934). It was the sixth midterm election in which the President's party increased its number of seats in the House, after 1814, 1822, 1902, 1934, and 1998, and is the only midterm election since 1978 which left the President's party in control of the House.

As of 2021, this is the most recent election in which the Democrats were not led by Nancy Pelosi.
