Home > Quebec general election, 1878

Joly de Lotbinière was the incumbent, since he had become premier two months earlier when the previous Conservative premier Charles-Eugène Boucher de Boucherville had resigned or was deposed by the Lieutenant Governor, who refused to approve railroad legislation that had been passed by both houses of the Quebec legislature.

Joly de Lotbinière did not quite win the election: the Conservatives won 32 seats to the Liberals' 31 (and there were two "Independent Conservatives"). However, four Conservatives supported him, allowing him to form a minority government. However, the Legislative Council pushed him to resign on October 31, 1879 and the Conservative Joseph-Adolphe Chapleau then took office.
