1923 Newfoundland general election


The 1923 Newfoundland general election was held on 3 May 1923 to elect members of the 25th General Assembly of Newfoundland in the Dominion of Newfoundland. The Liberal Reform Party, an alliance between the Liberals led by Richard Squires and the Fishermen's Protective Union of William Coaker, were re-elected. The Liberal-Labour-Progressive party, led by John R. Bennett, formed the opposition. Squires was forced to resign as Prime Minister just two months later in July 1923 after allegations of corruption were brought forward. William Warren became Liberal Reform Party leader and Prime Minister. After Warren's government was defeated following a motion of no confidence, Albert Hickman was asked to form a government and Warren joined William J. Higgins to form the new Liberal-Conservative Progressive Party.
