Singaporean General Election, 2020

Election Date: July 10, 2020

The 2020 Singaporean general election was a general election held in Singapore on 10 July 2020. It elected members of parliament to the 14th Parliament of Singapore since Singapore's independence in 1965, using the first-past-the-post electoral system. Voting was mandatory for all Singaporeans who were aged 21 or above as of 1 March 2020.


The results saw the ruling People's Action Party winning 83 seats with the Worker's Party winning the remaining ten. WP successfully retained their wards of Aljunied GRC and Hougang SMC and captured the newly created Sengkang GRC, making it the largest representation for opposition-elect in Parliament since 1966, the first time an opposition claimed multiple GRCs since the creation of the scheme in 1988, and also the first time a newly created constituency was won by an opposition on its first attempt. PAP's overall vote share dropped to 61.24% which was the lowest share since the 2011 elections, while the WP's vote broke its best record for its overall contested vote share for any opposition with 50.49% of the votes, surpassing the previous record held by the Singapore Democratic Party in 1991 with 48.55%.
