The 1920 Central Shaneville Presidential election was held on the 15 October 1912 - Ben Murker and the Liberal Party entered as the incumbent president and party respectively after defeating the Conservatives in a very close 1916 election, Murker and the Liberals retained their majority making him the first ever Central Shaneville President to be elected for a second term - Murker and the Liberals celebrated as they increased their majority by 13 seats.

Pre-election, Conservative leader and the first President of Central Shaneville - Henry Hite - was removed by his own party from leader position due to a vote of no confidence against him and was replaced with former Ajaccio governor James Graves who strongly disliked Liberalism and its influence on the island nation since it came into power in 1916.

Within the first week of the 1920 election campaign, people called the Conservative campaign too negative, specifically calling out Ben Murker on his record in office - Ben Murker's campaign hit back calling Graves' views old-fashioned, out of touch and ineffectual.

The western districts of Central Shaneville were proving tough to get this election as throughout both parties campaigns, a clear winner of the western districts was never established.

Exit Poll

The exit polls suggested another Liberal majority however it was predicted they would lose 7 seats, taking their total to 100 with the Conservatives getting 80 - gaining 7.

The Exit Poll took place a week before the election and predicted the following:
