The 1876 Lissathan presidential election marked the 4th sexennial presidential election in Lissatha. It took place on August 18, 1876, with the Federalist nominee, Ioannis Papiades, competing against the Republican-Federalist candidate, Marco Russo. It was one of the closest elections in Lissathan history, as Ioannis Papiades won the electoral college while his opponent Marco Russo won the popular vote by a slim margin of just 38,000 votes.

The election was the first one to be seriously contested, as in the previous three presidential elections the Republican-Federalist nominee had essentially ran unopposed, this changed with the nomination of founding father Marco Russo. Russo was one of the four co-founders of the Republican-Federalist Party, the other three co-founders had all served as President and had privately agreed to all support the candidacy of the others when the time came. Ioannis Papiades had emerged as a leader of the conservative wing of the party and heavily contested the nomination of the progressive Russo, this came in vain as Russo was easily nominated by the party at the Republican-Federalist Convention, Papiades in response left the party and accepted the nomination of the previously miniscule Federalist Party, with much of the Republican-Federalist's conservative wing walking out as well.
