Newfoundland general election, 1836

Newfoundland general election, 1836

The 2nd Newfoundland general election was held in 1836 in the Dominion of Newfoundland. The results of the election were set aside by Henry John Boulton after he discovered some of the writs from the election had not been marked with the official seal. Some felt that this was a pretext used because Liberal reformers had dominated the assembly and a number who had been reelected in 1836 did not run for reelection the following year.
