The 1832 United Kingdom general election was the first United Kingdom general election held in the Reformed House of Commons following the Reform Act. The election saw the Whigs win an overall majority of 224 seats, with the Tories winning less than 30% of the vote. This was the last election before the Tories formally reconstituted themselves into the Conservatives, and the last time until 1906 that they won fewer than 200 seats.
