The 1927 Laeralian legislative election was held on December 16, 1927 across the Republic of Laeral, although elections continued into December 17th in some areas and results from certain provinces were delayed by several days. Voters across Laeral returned the governing Social Democratic Party to power, albeit with a decreased vote share, in an election generally characterized as largely unfree. The sole legal opposition party, the Liberal Democratic Party, contested most seats, while independent candidates, nearly all opposition-aligned and including communist and gynarchist elements, served as the true opposition to the Social Democrats in many constituencies. The election was held concurrently with the 1927 Laeralian presidential election, which saw René Gramont re-elected with a substantial majority, while Jean-Philippe Salaun was returned as prime minister following the election. This was the first election under the Republic in which an opposition party was permitted to compete.
