Craftian general election, 1976

A general election was held on Saturday, 11 December 1976 to determine the members of the 15th Provincial Parliament of the Province of Craftia. The incumbent centre-right National Party of Craftia government, led by Premier Jim McIntyre, defeated the right-wing Protection of Craftia Party opposition, led by Edwin Stevenson, with its substantial majority largely intact. The Protection Party saw a swing of more than 10 percent to finish in the top two in terms of the popular vote for the first time since 1962, marking its return to major party status since its defeat more than a decade earlier.

The Nationals' traditional opposition, the centre-left National Labour Party, now led by Dan Stanhope-Callaghan, failed to make any major gains, dropping in popular vote and only gaining one seat. The Left Party lost two of its three seats, while the Independent Craftia Party gained two seats.
