1917 Saskatchewan general election

The 1917 Saskatchewan general election was held on June 26, 1917, to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan.

After replacing Walter Scott as leader of the Liberal Party of Saskatchewan and premier of the province, William M. Martin led the party to its fourth consecutive victory, winning all but 8 of the 59 seats in the legislature.

The Conservative Party of Wellington Willoughby continued to lose popular support.

This was the first Saskatchewan election in which women were allowed to vote and run for office. However, none were declared elected in this election. The first Saskatchewan woman MLA was elected in a 1918 by-election.

The Non-Partisan League, forerunner of the Progressive Party of Saskatchewan, ran candidates in this election but none were successful. Labour candidates also appeared for the first time.

David John Sykes became the first Independent to sit in the Saskatchewan legislature. He was nominated by the Liberal, Conservative and Non-Partisan League organizations, and was acclaimed to the seat this election.

A separate army ("service") vote was held from October 3 to October 13, 1917 to elect three soldier MLAs. All service candidates were Independent (not affiliated), and those MLAs were elected to represent Saskatchewan residents stationed in France, Belgium and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
