Elections were held in the [[States and territories of Australia|Australian state]] of [[Queensland]] on 11 May 1929 to elect the 72 members of the state's [[Legislative Assembly of Queensland|Legislative Assembly]]. In this election, [http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/documents/explore/education/factsheets/factsheet_7.4_firstwomen.pdf Irene Longman] became the first woman to both stand and be elected into the Queensland Parliament.

The [[Australian Labor Party (Queensland Branch)|Labor]] government was seeking its sixth continuous term in office since the [[1915 Queensland state election|1915 election]]; it would be Premier [[William McCormack]]'s second election. His main opponent was the [[Country and Progressive National Party]] (CPNP), led by [[Arthur Edward Moore]]. The term had not gone well for McCormack's government, including a railway lock-out in 1927 which pitted the Labor Party against the union movement, restrictive financial policies and attempts to sell off state-owned enterprises, as well as suggestions of corruption which later came to be known as the [[Mungana affair]].

The election resulted in the defeat of the McCormack government in a [[landslide victory|landslide]], and the first non-Labor ministry since 1915.
