United States elections, 1858

The 1858 United States general election occurred in the middle of Democratic President James Buchanan's term, during the opening stages of the Third Party System. Members of the 36th United States Congress were chosen in this election. In the first election since the Supreme Court decided ''Dred Scott v. Sandford'', the Republican Party won a plurality in the House, taking control of a chamber of Congress for the first time in the party's history. Although Democrats lost control of the House, they retained their majority in the Senate.
In the House, Democrats suffered a major defeat, losing seats to Republicans and a group of politicians campaigning as the Opposition. Although no party won a majority, Republicans won a plurality of seats.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://history.house.gov/Institution/Party-Divisions/Party-Divisions/ )〕 Republican William Pennington won election as Speaker of the House, becoming the first Republican Speaker.
In the Senate, Republicans picked up several seats, but Democrats retained a commanding majority.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/history/one_item_and_teasers/partydiv.htm )〕
