Craftian general election, 1957

A general election was held on Monday, 25 March 1957 to determine the members of the 7th Provincial Parliament of the Province of Craftia. The incumbent second-term centre-left National Labour Party government, led by Premier Allen Wilson, was re-elected to a third term in government, defeating the opposition right-wing Protection of Craftia Party, led by John Anderson. The centre-right National Party of Craftia, led by William McArthur, overtook Protection to become the official opposition again.

This was the first election in Craftian history where all women were allowed to vote. Near-universal suffrage was introduced following the 1955 electoral system referendum, with only lower class Indigenous Craftians being barred from voting. Previously, during the monarchy era, only women who owned property were allowed to vote. Labour's vote share continued to drop in this election, but it remained in government with a two-seat majority thanks to vote splitting between the Nationals and Protection. The Nationals gained most of the new seats in the expanded parliament at the expense of Labour and Protection.
