1923 Quebec general election

The 1923 Quebec general election was held on February 5, 1923, to elect members of the 16th Legislative Assembly of Quebec, Canada. The incumbent Quebec Liberal Party, led by Louis-Alexandre Taschereau, was re-elected, defeating the Quebec Conservative Party, led by Arthur Sauvé.

It was the first of four election victories in a row for Taschereau. However, he had held office since 1920, following the resignation of the previous premier, Lomer Gouin.

Redistribution of ridings
An Act passed prior to the election increased the number of MLAs from 81 to 85 through the following changes:

Results
This was the last Quebec election in which a candidate won in multiple ridings. Joseph-Édouard Perrault took both Abitibi and Arthabaska, and he would later resign from Abitibi to allow Hector Authier to be elected in a byelection later that year.
