The '''2005 Ordennyan general election''' was held on 10 May 2005, five years after the previous election in 2000. It resulted in a landslide victory for the Conservative Party, ending their nine-year period in opposition. The Conservatives made a net gain of 68 seats, for a total of 328, and won 50.3% of the popular vote - the highest percentage for any party since 1996.
The Labour Party had been in government since the 1996 election, first as a majority government after winning a landslide under Fredrik Månsson, and then as part of a minority coalition after facing heavier than expected losses in the 2000 election. With a net loss of 92 seats and winning just 27% of the popular vote, the election marked the worst defeat for the Labour Party since 1982, a record which would not be surpassed until the 2018 federal election.
