General elections were held in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines on 27 November 2025 to elect 15 members of the House of Assembly.[2][3]

The current Unity Labour Party (ULP) government, led by Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves, ran for re-election to a record sixth term in office. The opposition New Democratic Party (NDP), led by Godwin Friday, ran against them.[4]

The election ended in a landslide victory for the NDP, winning 14 of the 15 seats up for election, the largest supermajority government for any party since 1989.[5] In its worst result in party history, the ULP was left with one seat from 9, with Gonsalves as its only remaining representative.[6]
