1967 Australian Senate election


Elections were held on 25 November 1967 to elect half of the 60 seats in the Australian Senate for a term commencing on 1 July 1968. There was no accompanying election to the House of Representatives as the two election cycles had been out of synchronisation since 1963. The results were a setback for the government of Harold Holt. Having won a landslide victory at the House-only election the previous year, the Coalition instead lost two seats in the Senate. The Labor Party failed to make any gains in Gough Whitlam's first election as leader; the Democratic Labor Party gained two seats and held the balance of power until 1974.
