The 2023 West Arcadian presidential election was the 16th presidential election since 1952 elections and the third snap election. The election was held on Wednesday, 25 October 2023. The Federal Liberal nominee, Speaker of the Free Assembly Andrei Burtos was elected over Mihailo Dimitros, Prime Minister and Acting President. Burtos defeated Dimitros by almost seven points and 4.3 million votes, a comfortable margin in an election originally thought to be much closer.

The office of President had been vacated since Prak Varnolstrenyk, elected in 2018 suffered a brain aneurysm and resigned from office due to medical reasons. Varnolstrenyk was ineligible for a third term and would have finished his term in 2024 regardless.
