dbo:abstract The 1856–57 United States Senate elections were elections which had the young Republican Party assume its position as one of the United States's two main political parties. The Whigs and Free Soilers were gone by the time the next Congress began. As this election was prior to ratification of the seventeenth amendment, senators were chosen by state legislatures. (en) Die Wahlen zum Senat der Vereinigten Staaten 1856 und 1857 zum 35. Kongress der Vereinigten Staaten fanden zu verschiedenen Zeitpunkten statt. Die Wahlen fanden parallel zur Präsidentschaftswahl 1856 statt, in der James Buchanan gewählt wurde. Vor der Verabschiedung des 17. Zusatzartikels wurden die Senatoren nicht direkt gewählt, sondern von den Parlamenten der Bundesstaaten bestimmt. Zur Wahl standen die 21 Sitze der Senatoren der Klasse I, die 1850 und 1851 für eine Amtszeit von sechs Jahren gewählt worden oder später nachgerückt waren. Von diesen gehörten zwölf der Demokratischen Partei an, fünf der United States Whig Party, drei den Republikanern, einer der Free Soil Party. Sechs Demokraten und zwei Republikaner wurden wiedergewählt, der Senator der Free Soil wurde als Republikaner wiedergewählt. Zwei Sitze konnten die Demokraten halten, einen die Republikaner. Einen Sitz konnte die American Party, besser bekannt als Know-Nothing Party, von den Whigs erobern, einen die Demokraten, zwei die Republikaner. Außerdem konnten die Republikaner vier bisher von den Demokraten gehaltene Sitze erobern. Ein bisher von den Whigs gehaltener Sitz blieb unbesetzt, diesen konnten später die Demokraten für sich gewinnen. Vor der Wahl hatten die Demokraten mit 40 der 62 Sitze im Senat eine solide Mehrheit, 11 Sitze hielten die Republikaner, neun die Whigs, je einen Free Soil und die Know Nothings. Die kleineren Parteien hatten sich zu einer gemeinsamen Opposition zusammengeschlossen. Nach der Wahl hatten die Demokraten 37 Sitze, die Republikaner 20 und die Know Nothings vier, ein Sitz war vakant. Die Whigs und die Free Soil Party waren im Senat nicht mehr vertreten. Bis zum Beginn der Sitzungsperiode im Dezember stieg die Zahl der Demokraten auf 38. (de) 1856년 미국 상원의원 선거는 1856년 각 주에서 2명씩 상원의원을 선출했다. (ko)
