Home > Quebec general election, 1948

 
In the Quebec general election on July 28, 1948, the incumbent Union Nationale under Maurice Duplessis won re-election, defeating the Quebec Liberal Party under Adélard Godbout.

This was the third time (and the second in a row) that Duplessis led his party to a general election victory.

It was Godbout's third (and final) loss to Duplessis in a general election, and the second in a row, versus one victory against Duplessis years earlier in the 1939 election. In this 1948 election, the Liberals fared particularly poorly, reduced to only 8 seats, although their share of the popular vote was around 36%.
