A federal election was held in Enderron on Saturday 19 October 1946 to elect the 75 members of the inaugural Enderronian Parliament. The election was held one month after Enderronian independence on 16 September.
The incumbent United Party government, led by Prime Minister William Oxley, was re-elected for a fourth term in government, going from a minority government to a supermajority. It won two-thirds of the seats in the parliament, heavily defeating the opposition Social Democratic Party, led by Jeremy Fulton. It was the most comprehensive election victory in Enderronian history until the Social Democrats' landslide victory in 1970.
