Federal elections were held in Australia on 28 April 1951. All 121 seats in the House of Representatives and all 60 seats in the Senate were up for election due to a double dissolution called after the Senate rejected the Commonwealth Bank Bill. The incumbent Liberal Party of Australia led by Prime Minister of Australia Robert Menzies with coalition partner the Country Party led by Arthur Fadden defeated the Australian Labor Party led by Ben Chifley.
