The Alberta general election of 1948 was the eleventh general election for the Province of Alberta, Canada. It was held on August 17 1948 to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.
Ernest C. Manning led the Social Credit to a fourth term in government, increasing its share of the popular vote further above the 50% mark it had set in the 1944 election. It won the same number of seats — 51 of the 57 seats in the legislature — that it had won in the previous election.
The remaining seats were won by the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation, the Liberal Party and independents.
Along with this election voters got to also vote in the first province wide plebiscite in the provinces history. The ballot asked voters about utility regulation.
