title:
Virginia's at-large congressional seat
text:
After the 1880 census, a tenth seat in the United States House of Representatives was added to Virginia's nine districts. For the 48th Congress, that seat was elected at-large statewide. In 1885, Virginia redistricted its seats into ten geographic districts, thereby eliminating the at-large seat. For the 73rd Congress, Virginia elected all of its representatives at-large. The district format returned in the election to the 74th Congress and has remained in effect ever since.
