Only statement 1 is correct.
- 1 (correct): The 1994 midterm elections produced new congressional leadership — the Republican takeover of the House and Senate (the "Republican Revolution") and Newt Gingrich becoming Speaker — driven in part by dissatisfaction with the economy and other issues.
- 2 and 3 (incorrect): Republicans did not suffer a net participation decline in 1994; rather, Republican candidates gained many seats. Democrats lost large numbers of seats and control of the House.
- 4 (incorrect as stated): Congress was not unable to create new policies — the GOP majority advanced the "Contract with America" agenda and passed a number of bills (though some were contested or vetoed and partisan conflict limited some outcomes).
