Results of the 2014 Japanese general election (Shikoku proportional representation block)

The Shikoku proportional representation block was one of 11 multi-member districts (and 306 districts overall) that were contested at the general election for the House of Representatives in the Japanese National Diet on 14 December 2014. Six seats were available for election via open party lists. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) maintained their dominance in the predominantly rural area, claiming three of the seats.

Voters who participated in the election cast one ballot for the proportional block and a separate ballot for one of the 11 smaller single-member districts that are located within Shikoku. The number of single-member districts within Shikoku was reduced from the 13 districts that were contested at the previous election in 2012.
