Congressional elections are every two years. Every other congressional election is also a presidential election. Two of every three elections you also elect a senator from your state. (Senators serve for 6 years and their elections are staggered so you usually don't vote for both senators in one election).
Those elections that are -just- congressional tend not to get as big a voter turnout. Most people don't even know who their congressional representatives are. More people care about presidential elections.
Congressmen and Senators are elected by direct vote--whoever gets the most votes win. Presidents are elected by the electoral college, so whoever gets the most votes in your state gets -all- your state's electoral votes.
Congressional Reconstruction restricted eligibility for participation in the state constitutional conventions in the South.

The fundamental disagreement between the candidates in the 1932 election was whether or not the Depression existed. Hoover stated in one of his speeches that prosperity was just around the corner, which never happened.
The general election is held in the United States on the Tuesday following the first Monday in the month of November. This can be between the 2nd and the 8th.

Between presidential elections, there is another Congressional election, since all members of the House and 1/3 of the Senate are elected every two years. This election is a measure of president and his program.
