Queensland Legislative Election, 1998




The result of the election was a second consecutive Hung Parliament , with the Australian Labor Party forming Minority Government after receiving the support of independent Peter Wellington . This election was the first in which One Nation Party supporters were elected into state Parliament, with the controversial party winning 11 seats.

A few months after the election, the One Nation Party member for Mulgrave resigned, and the Australian Labor Party candidate won the subsequent by-election, resulting in the ALP holding a majority in the Legislative Assembly.
