Sir John Gladstone Black McDonald (1898–1977) was 37th Premier of Victoria (leading the Country Party) from 27 June 1950 to 17 December 1952, except for a few days in October 1952 when Thomas Hollway led a brief Electoral Reform government. McDonald came to office by defeating Hollway's Liberals, but was himself vanquished by the Australian Labor Party under John Cain (senior) in 1952.
