The 1902 United States elections elected the 58th United States Congress , and occurred in the middle of Republican President Theodore Roosevelt 's first term, during the Fourth Party System . Roosevelt had become president on September 14, 1901, upon the assassination of his predecessor, William McKinley . Republicans retained a majority in both chambers of Congress, while the Populist Party and Silver Republican Party disappeared from Congress.
Reapportionment added twenty nine seats to the House . Democrats picked up several seats in the newly enlarged House , while Republicans made lesser gains. Republicans continued to control the chamber with a slightly diminished majority.[3]
In the Senate , Republicans and Democrats each picked up one seat, while the Populist Party lost both its seats. Republicans maintained a commanding majority in the chamber.[4]
