Hong Kuo-shu
Social Democratic Party

The 1927 Laeralian legislative election was held on December 9, 1932 across the Republic of Laeral. Voters across Laeral returned the governing Social Democratic Party to power in an election largely orchestrated by the party's elites. The sole legal opposition party, the Liberal Democratic Party, achieved its goal of contesting three-quarters of seats, while independent candidates, originating largely from the left, rose to 12 seats despite a slight decrease in their vote share. The election was held concurrently with the 1932 Laeralian presidential election, which saw incumbent prime minister Jean-Philippe Salaun elected as president, while future SDP Party Secretary Hong Kuo-shu was elected as prime minister.
