Pennsylvania's At-large congressional district
Encyclopedia
Pennsylvania elected its United States Representatives At-Large on a general ticket
for the first and third United States Congress
es. General ticket representation was prohibited by the 1842 Apportionment Bill
and subsequent legislation, most recently in 1967 .
Some representatives, including Galusha A. Grow
, served at-large after 1842 (in Grow's case, it was from 1894 to 1903). This was allowed because Pennsylvania had received an increase in the number of its representatives yet its legislature didn't pass an apportionment bill during those years.
.
After 1795, Most representatives were elected in districts. Occasionally, at-large representatives were also elected.
No future At-Large representatives were apportioned after William Troutman's resignation in 1945
