1790–1843: At-large seat(s)
When Rhode Island ratified the Constitution in 1790, it had one seat. After the first census, it had two seats, chosen at-large on a general ticket.
1843 – present
In 1843 the at-large seat was eliminated. Since then, Representatives have been chosen from separate districts.
