The 2020 Scalizagastian federal election was held on August 22, 2020, to elect 516 members of the Parliament of Scalizagasti. Prior to the election, the Social Democratic Party, led by Prime Minister Sarah Millard, governed Scalizagasti in a coalition with the Greens, LSP, and PPP. It was the second election for Millard as SDP leader and first election as the incumbent Prime Minister.

With 42.1% of the popular vote and 231 seats, the SDP won one of the largest parliamentary victories in Scalizagastian history. Up 77 seats from 2016, Prime Minister Millard formed government with a SDP-Green coalition, no longer needing the LSP and PPP as they did previously. The large gains by the SDP mostly came at the expense of the RRP and Greens, dropping by 8 and 4 points of support respectively. With exception to the SDP, every party dropped in support, although marginal regional gains allowed the ADP and PPP to pick up 2 seats each. All ten parties which had a presence after the 2016 election returned to Parliament.
