Vermont had district representation upon admission as the 14th state on March 4, 1791. From 1813-1821, beginning with the 13th, Vermont elected its US representatives statewide at-large. After the 16th, Vermont returned to electing congressmen from districts. Vermont returned to a single at-large district after losing its second representative following redistricting resulting from the 1930 census.
