Canadian general election 1904
The 10th Canadian General Election (English. 10th Canadian General Election , French. 10e élection fédérale canadienne ) was held on November 3, 1904. 214 deputies were elected the Canadian House of Commons (Engl. House of Commons , fr. Chambre des Communes ). There were only minor changes in voting behavior.
The vote
Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier led the ruling Liberal Party to a third consecutive election victory. Both the share of the vote, which again exceeded 50%, and the number of seats could be increased slightly. The Conservatives and Liberal Conservatives , who again stood together, were under the leadership of Robert Borden . But even the new chairman did not manage to improve. This ultimately resulted in minor loss of votes and seats. The Yukon Territory , created in 1898, was represented for the first time in parliament and was no longer represented by parliamentarians from the Northwest Territories .
The turnout was 71.6%.
