The 2023 New South Wales Liberal Party leadership election was held on 21 April 2023 following the party's defeat by Labor at the 2023 election, which resulted in the resignation of leader and former premier Dominic Perrottet. Mark Speakman (of the party's Moderate faction) and Anthony Roberts (of the Right faction) were the two declared candidates. Speakman defeated Roberts by 22 votes (62.86%) to 13 (37.14%). For the deputy leadership, Natalie Ward defeated Wendy Tuckerman by 27 votes (77.14%) to eight (22.86%) after the party overwhelmingly voted to allow members of both houses to run for the deputy leadership.
