1920 — 1920 Greek parliamentary election
Parliamentary elections were held in Greece on Sunday, 14 November 1920, or 1 November 1920 old style. They were possibly the most crucial elections in the modern history of Greece, as they led to the complete reshuffling of the upper echelons of the Hellenic Army and to the loss of important diplomatic support, both of which largely contributed to the Greek defeat by Kemal Atatürk's reformed Turkish Land Forces in 1922.

The United Kingdom general election held on 14 November 1935 resulted in a large, though reduced, majority for the National Government now led by Conservative Stanley Baldwin. The greatest number of Members, as before, were Conservatives, while the National Liberal vote held steady. The National Labour vote collapsed, and even its leader Ramsay MacDonald lost his seat. Labour, under what was then regarded internally as the caretaker leadership of Clement Attlee following the resignation of George Lansbury slightly over a month before the election, made large gains over their very poor showing in the 1931 general election.
