The Lyttelton by-election of 1933 was a by-election held during the 24th New Zealand Parliament in the Christchurch electorate of Lyttelton. It is notable for being won by Elizabeth McCombs of the New Zealand Labour Party who became the first woman to be elected to the New Zealand Parliament. This by-election was therefore seen as a milestone in Women’s suffrage in New Zealand.
