This was the second general election to be held since the founding of the Republic in 1921, after the 1922 elections.
The election took place in a political climate marked by factional infighting in the Revolutionary People’s Party (RPP), the party of the state’s founders, which before the election held the majority of seats in the Assembly. The election is notable because it was the first time the RPP lost their majority in the Assembly, winning only 8 out of 20 seats.
Following Basic’s 1924 founding of the Sons of Kresimir, in January 1932, Eward Matek, another one of the six original founders of the Republic, formally established the liberal Civic Renewal Front (CRF). The new party immediately gained a presence in the Assembly when three sitting RPP senators (Eward Matek, General Dominik Loncar, Matej Marij Mihaljevic) and one independent senator (Mil Vucic) defected to run under its party line in the upcoming elections, causing the RPP to lose its majority in the Assembly. Dominik Loncar would later go on to found the nationalist political party Vjetrusa.

Chair
Appointed Chair of the Assembly Chair Senator Filip Novak of District I - Sinj
In favour: 15 Mil Vucič (II) Luka Matar (II) Eward Matek (III) Marija Sarislav (III) Antonio Îrič (IV) Sara Unalina (IV) Nika Radman (V) Zoran Banit (V) Leon Rukavin (VI) Matej Marij Mihaljevič (VII) Davor Banit (VII) Rod Blakojevič (VIII) Ivan Franj (IX) Josipa Vukel (X) Kresimir Basič (X)
We believe the work of Chair Senator Filip Novak has been impeccable and respectable for the period of ten years he has served in the position. It would be our honour to nominate him again as Chair Senator for the following ten years. Luka Matar, Eward Matek, Mil Vucič, Sara Unalina, Nika Radman, Leon Rukavin, Matej Marij Mihaljevič, Rod Blakojevič, Ivan Franj, Josipa Vukel, Davor Banit.
Opposing: 4 Ana Kovačevič (I) Dominik Lončar (VI) Marin Lurčič Grubisič (VIII) Roko Blazevič (IX)
Chair Senator Filip Novak has shown a clearly disappointing lean in his reign as Chair Senator. We do not believe it is in the interest of the Republic to have him serve a second term. Dominik Lončar, Marin Lurčič Grubisič, Roko Blakojevič.
