General elections were held in Italy on 6 April 1924. They were held under the Acerbo Law which stated that the party with the largest share of the votes would automatically receive two-thirds of the seats in Parliament as long as they received over 25% of the vote. The National Bloc of Benito Mussolini (an alliance with Catholics Liberals and Conservatives) used intimidation tactics resulting in a landslide victory and a subsequent two-thirds majority.
