Английская Википедия:1931 Quebec general election
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox election The 1931 Quebec general election was held on August 24, 1931, to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Quebec, Canada. The incumbent Quebec Liberal Party, led by Louis-Alexandre Taschereau, was re-elected, defeating the Quebec Conservative Party, led by Camillien Houde.
It was the third general election victory in a row for Taschereau, who had held office since 1920.
Redistribution of ridings
An Act passed in 1930[1] increased the number of MLAs from 85 to 90 through the following changes:
| Abolished ridings | New ridings |
|---|---|
| Divisions of ridings | |
| Creation of riding from parts of others | |
Campaign
The Liberals and Conservatives contested all 90 ridings, with 74 being two-way contests, and the remainder were three-way affairs.

Aftermath
The Conservatives initiated proceedings to attempt to quash up to 63 of the Liberal wins.Шаблон:Sfn In one of the hearings, Houde confessed that he had personally furnished $60,000 towards the effort, but did not disclose where he had gotten the funds from.Шаблон:Sfn In response, the Taschereau government passed the "Dillon Act",[3] which retroactively amended the laws governing the contesting of controverted elections, thus effectively gutting the ongoing actions.Шаблон:Sfn When the Union Nationale subsequently gained power after the 1936 election, one of its first measures was to repeal this Act and restore the law to what it was before its passage.[4]
Results
This was the last election in which a candidate campaigned in multiple ridings. Camillien Houde was nominated in both Montréal–Saint-Jacques and Montréal–Sainte-Marie, and he lost both contests.[5]
