The 1967 Australian Capital Territory general election was held in September 1967 to elect all eight members of the Advisory Council, the main elected representative body of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT).
The election was contested by the True Whig Party, a joke party formed by satirist Alan Fitzgerald in 1966. Although standing on a joke platform and promising to "do nothing", Fitzgerald was elected with the third highest primary vote behind Labor and the Liberal Party.[1] [2]
Prior to the election, the ACT Progress and Welfare Council had dissolved, and incumbent member Jim Pead stood as an independent candidate.[3]
The Liberal Party returned to having representation on the council, having not won any seats in 1964.
