Maine

This was the first election in Maine since its separation from Massachusetts. In the previous election, Massachusetts had had 20 representatives. Seven seats (representing the 14th-20th districts) were reassigned from Massachusetts to Maine. In addition, under the terms of the law which admitted Maine to the union, any vacancies in the 16th Congress by Representatives elected to represent Massachusetts but residing in the new states of Maine would be filled by a special election held on an at-large basis in Maine. John Holmes, who had been elected to the House for the former 14th district of Massachusetts was elected as one of the first two senators for Maine. The vacancy was filled by an at-large election by Joseph Dane (F). Dane was the only Representative officially considered as representing Maine in the 16th Congress. The Representatives from the 15th-20th districts were still classified as being from Massachusetts for the remainder of the 16th Congress.

Maine law required a majority to win election, necessitating additional ballots if a majority was not received. This proved necessary in the 4th and 5th districts. The source used does not provide electoral data for any additional ballots for the 3rd or 5th districts, although the final ballot given for both does not show anyone with a majority.

This election was held on November 7, 1820. The second ballot was held January 8, 1821 in the 4th district and January 22 in the 5th district. The third ballot in the 4th district was held September 10, 1821.

New York

The 21st district, previously a plural district with two seats, was divided into two single-member districts for the 17th Congress, the 21st and 22nd. Elections for the 17th Congress were held April 24-26, 1821, after the official start of the 17th Congress, but before the First Session of Congress actually began.

The Democratic-Republican party in New York at this time was divided into two factions, the "Bucktails" and the Clintonians. They are distinguished here by the labels DR-B and DR-C. The Clintonians ran on a joint ticket with the remaining Federalists. In a few cases, it is unclear whether a candidate on the joint ticket was Democratic-Republican or Federalist. Those candidates will be marked "C/F" for Clintonian/Federalist.

In the 1st district, the winners were initially declared to be Silas Wood and Peter Sharpe. Sharpe's election was challenged and Colden took the seat in his place. Initial returns showed 3,339 votes for Cadwallader D. Colden, with 395 for "Cadwallader Colden" and 220 for "Cadwallader D. Colder". After those votes were declared to be for Cadwallader D. Colden, he finished in 2nd place, and thus received one of the two seats for that district.

Two vacancies occurred in the 17th Congress. In the 6th district, Selah Tuthill died on September 7, 1821 and was replaced by Charles Borland, Jr. (DR). The second vacancy occurred in the 9th district after Solomon Van Rensselaer resigned on January 14, 1822, which was filled by Stephen Van Rensselaer

Six vacancies appeared in the 17th Congress, two of which appeared before Congress assembled.

The first vacancy occurred in the 5th district, when James Duncan resigned in April, 1821 and was replaced in a special election by John Findlay (DR)

The second vacancy occurred in the 10th district when William Cox Ellis (F) resigned on July 20, 1821 and was replaced in a special election by Thomas Murray, Jr. (DR)

Two vacancies occurred on May 8, 1822 (the last day of the First Session of the 17th Congress), one in the 1st district when William Milnor (F) resigned and the other in the 14th district when Henry Baldwin (DR) resigned. The vacancy in the 1st district was filled by Thomas Forrest (F) and the vacancy in the 14th district was filled by Walter Forward (DR)

The fifth vacancy occurred shortly afterwards, on May 22, 1822, in the 6th district when Samuel Moore (DR) resigned. This vacancy was filled by Samuel D. Ingham. The vacancies in the 1st, 6th, and 14th districts were filled at the same time as the elections for the 18th Congress, by which time redistricting had occurred, so that the districts used for the special elections were different from those used for the general election.

The last vacancy occurred in the 7th district after Ludwig Worman (F) died on October 17, 1822 and was replaced in a special election by Daniel Udree (DR).

Vermont

In 1820, Vermont went back to using districts. This would prove to be the only election in which the 6th district would be used. A majority was required for election, which was not met in the 2nd or 3rd district, requiring additional ballots to achieve a majority. The 2nd district required 7 ballots but only the 1st is given in the source. The 3rd district required two additional ballots.

Non-voting delegates

There were four territories that had the right to send a delegate to at least part of the 17th Congress, only three of which actually sent delegates. Missouri Territory's seat remained vacant, as the territory was admitted as the State of Missouri early in the 17th Congress. Florida Territory sent its first delegate in 1822
