A Federal election was held in Gristol-Serkonos on 2nd November 2023 to elect the members of the Council of Representatives for the 50th Federal Parliament of Gristol-Serkonos. The writs of election were issued by Queen Anna of Gristol and Grand Duke Tehwehron of Serkonos, exercising their right as co-monarchs of the United Kingdom. The xth Federal Parliament was dissolved on 13 October 2023. It is also the first election under new electoral distribution of seats.

The governing Progressive Conservative Party, led by Kaniehtí:io Fox, won 322 seats, retaining the overall majority of seats. The opposition Social Democratic Party, led by Stuart Lewis, won 248 seats, losing seats though retaining the Official Opposition role. The SDP's opposition partners, the Moderate Left won 97 seats, the Democratic Socialists won 21 seats and the Greens won 18 seats. Other parties such as the far-right Patriotic People's Front won 31 seats, the Democratic Unionists won 31, and the National Coalition won 17 seats. The Independent Group won MPs do not take their seats, as they refuse to swear the Oath of Office.

The Progressive Conservatives' failure to retain the overall majority in the Parliament caused the government to sign a supply and confidence agreement with the Patriotic People's Front, Democratic Unionists and the National Coalition.
