2025 Australian General Election
Australia held its parliamentary election on May 3, 2025. All 150 seats in the House of Representatives were up for election, and a party needed to win at least 76 seats to form a majority government.
The incumbent Labor Party, which had trailed in the polls leading up to the campaign, won a shock landslide over the opposition Liberal/National Party Coalition. Incumbent Prime Minister Anthony Albanese secured 94 seats for his party, the largest number of seats ever won by a single party in Australian political history, a tying the Coalition's mandate in 1996 as the country's largest government in history.
