It was the fourth and final general election victory in a row for Taschereau, who had held office since 1920. He resigned less than seven months later due to a scandal.
The Action libérale nationale (ALN) was a newly formed party led by the son of former Liberal premier Lomer Gouin. It was established by former Liberals who had become dissatisfied with the party. The ALN and Conservatives formed an alliance, the Union Nationale, to contest this election. They merged after the election to become a single party, which soon became a dominant political force.
Nominations
There were 208 candidates nominated,[1] of which five subsequently withdrew:[2]
- Wilfrid Bullock (Ind-Liberal, Shefford)

- Roy Sasseville and René Mercier (Ind-Liberals, Gaspé-Nord)
- Arthur Arcand (Ind-Liberal, Montréal–Sainte-Marie), in favour of Gaspard Fauteux (Liberal)

Controversy in Terrebonne
In Terrebonne, the election of Athanase David was contested on the ground that the ballot papers were not printed in the form prescribed under the Election Act. At the subsequent hearing, the judge ruled that all cast ballots were declared void. Immediately afterwards, the returning officer announced that, as this resulted in a 0-0 tie, he cast his deciding vote in favour of David.[4][5]

| Conservative | Hermann Barrette | 4,170 | – | |
| Majority | 720 | 1 | ||

The returning officer's action was considered to have been without precedent anywhere in the world in countries with parliamentary-style legislatures.[8] The Conservatives lodged an appeal,[8] but the result was upheld by the Quebec Court of Appeal in April 1936.[9] David would become the only member of the Assembly in Quebec history to be elected on only one cast vote.[10]
