Parliamentary elections were held in Lithuania on 12 and 13 May 1923.[1] The Lithuanian Popular Peasants' Union emerged as the largest party in the second Seimas, winning 16 of the 78 seats.[2] However, the Labour Federation, Lithuanian Christian Democratic Party and the Farmers' Association won a majority of seats.
The elections were exceptionally successful for parties and lists representing ethnic minorities (Jews, Poles, Germans and Russians), receiving 18% of the vote and winning 14 seats, the highest total achieved in free and fair elections in Lithuania.[3]
