On 6 November 1990, the District of Columbia held a U.S. House of Representatives election for its shadow representative. Unlike its non-voting delegate, the shadow representative is only recognized by the district and is not officially sworn or seated. Democratic nominee Charles Moreland won the election by a large margin against his opponents.[1]
