Background

Seat changes

There had been four by-elections in Nationalist-held seats during the previous parliamentary term: Labor had won the seats of Daylesford on 9 August 1923 and Dalhousie on 31 January 1924. The Nationalists retained the seat of Gippsland South on 18 August 1922, but lost Gippsland West to the Country Party.
