Chatham-Kent—Leamington (formerly Chatham-Kent—Essex and Chatham—Kent Essex) is a provincial electoral district in southwestern, Ontario, Canada. It elects one member to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.

It was created in 1999 from parts of Essex—Kent, Chatham-Kent and Essex South.

When the riding was created, it included all of Kent County south of the Thames River, the city of Chatham, the town of Leamington and the Township of Mersea Township.

In 2007, the boundaries did not change.

As a result of the 2012 federal boundary redistricting, the name of the district was changed to Chatham-Kent—Leamington.
