Tasmanian state election, 1934
- Tasmanian state election, 1934
Distribution of Seats
Aftermath
Labor regained much of their ground in the 1934 election, winning 14 seats compared to the Nationalists' 13 (although the Nationalists had received more votes), not enough to govern in a majority. Three seats were won by independent candidates, and it was only through the support of one of these (George Carruthers in Denison, an ex-Labor man and proponent of the Douglasite Social Credit concept), that Labor was able to form government, with Albert Ogilvie as Premier.
