The 2021 Seketese General Election was held on March 29 2021 to elect members of the Commons Council, the lower house of the Hérvynsken. The election came after 4 years of Socialist coalition rule with the Labour Party. The President of Seketan, Fjedor Alesk formally dissolved the Commons Council on February 15 2017 at the request of the Prime Minister Eris Kellisyen.

The election saw the populist Our Revolution, lead by former comedian and TV personality Simeon Brasa, win a landslide victory. It was the first time a party other then the Socialists and National Conservatives won an election since the Seketese revoluion, with both parties recieving reconrd low seat and vote counts. Socialist Party support collapsed, with their caucus halved and many prominent ministers losing their districts.
