The 1893 Spanish general election was held on Sunday, 5 March (for the Congress of Deputies) and on Sunday, 19 March 1893 (for the Senate),[a] to elect the 6th Cortes of the Kingdom of Spain in the Restoration period. All 442 seats in the Congress of Deputies (plus five special districts) were up for election, as well as 180 of 360 seats in the Senate.
The ruling Liberal Party of Práxedes Mateo Sagasta secured a large majority in the Cortes, granting him the required parliamentary support for a new "turn" in power. This came following the downfall of Antonio Cánovas del Castillo's Conservative Party government in December 1892 as a result of an internal split by former minister Francisco Silvela over the issue of political regeneration. The election also saw a strong performance by pro-republican parties, which went on to win in the two main Spanish cities (Madrid and Barcelona) and secure over 10% of the seats in the Congress.
