The 1834 United States elections occurred in the middle of Democratic President Andrew Jackson's second term. Members of the 24th United States Congress were chosen in this election. Taking place during the Second Party System, elections were contested between Andrew Jackson's Democratic Party and opponents of Jackson, including the remnants of the National Republican Party. During this election, the anti-Jackson faction began to transition into the Whig Party.[3] Arkansas and Michigan joined the union during the 24th Congress.
In the House, the anti-Jackson faction picked up some seats from the Anti-Masonic Party, but the Democrats retained a commanding majority.[4]
In the Senate, the Democrats picked up a moderate number of seats, but the Anti-Jacksonian faction maintained narrow control of the chamber. However, the Democrats later won control of the chamber during the next Congress.[5]
