1900 British Columbia general election information


Members of the Legislature of British Columbia, 1900

The 1900 British Columbia general election was held in 1900. It was held to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia. The election was called on April 24, 1900, and held on June 9, 1900. The new legislature met for the first time on July 19, 1900.

Like in the previous BC general election, of the 38 MLAs 24 were elected in single member districts in 1900. There were also three 2-member districts and two 4-member districts. Each voter could cast as many votes as there were seats to fill in the district.[1]

This was the last election in which political parties were not part of the official process in British Columbia, although because of the political chaos in this year resulting from the joint misrule of Premier Joseph Martin and the Lieutenant-Governor, Thomas Robert McInnes, many individual candidates declared their party affiliations in many ridings as a protest against the non-party system.

For more on the political circumstances of this election, please see 1898 British Columbia general election.
