1876 French legislative elections (The Holy Deliverance)

The 1875 general election to the Chamber of Deputies, the lower chamber of the National Assembly of the Kingdom of the French, was held on 20 February and 5 March 1875, during the crise du 6 Juillet.

It is a new victory of the monarchists but the majority is assured by a handful of deputy. This forces King Henry V to accept an enlarged coalition with the Bonapartists who have won enormously by quadrupling their seats in the election. Republicans lose a quarter of seats they had because of internal divisions in the party.
