Joseph Hampton Moore (March 8, 1864 – May 2, 1950) was the 108th and 111th[citation needed] Mayor of Philadelphia and a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from Pennsylvania.
Moore was elected as a Republican to the 59th Congress to fill the vacancy caused by the death of George A. Castor.
He was re-elected seven times and served from November 6, 1906, to January 4, 1920, when he resigned to become the 109th mayor of Philadelphia.
Moore was responsible for Pennsylvania being one of only six states to be carried by President Herbert Hoover in his overwhelming defeat in the 1932 presidential election.
