The 1952 Saskatchewan general election, the twelfth in the history of the province, was held on June 11, 1952, to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan. The Co-operative Commonwealth Federation government of Premier Tommy Douglas was re-elected for a third term with a majority government.
Tommy Douglas' Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) was re-elected with an increased majority and their highest share of the popular vote, an outright majority of 54.1%. This was the highest share of the vote won by any government since Thomas Walter Scott's Liberals took 57% of the vote in the 1912 election. After the 1952 election, the CCF held 42 of 53 seats in the Assembly.[1]
The Liberal Party of Walter Tucker increased its share of the popular vote to almost 40%, but lost 9 of the seats it had held in the previous legislature.
The Social Credit and Progressive Conservative parties continued to lose support, securing less than 6% of the vote between them.
This election was held using a mixture of single-member districts and multi-member districts. Regina elected three members, while Saskatoon and Moose Jaw City elected two each. Every voter in those districts could cast as many votes as there were seats to fill in the district (Block Voting). Each multi-member district elected a one-party sweep of the district's seats. There was no proportionality.
