The Liberal Party was re-elected to its third term in government, falling just short of a Majority in the legislature even though it won less than a third of the popular vote. Two Independent Liberals were also elected. Premier John Oliver lost his own seat in Victoria City, but remained Premier until 1927.

The Conservative Party formed the Official Opposition , while two new parties, the Provincial Party and the Canadian Labour Party won three seats each, and a total of 35% of the vote.
