The 1984 Satavian federal election to elect the members of the Parliament of Satavia took place on November 21, 1984. Incumbent Prime Minister, Leander Kokkinakis of the Liberal Party defeated the Conservative & Country opposition, led by Ben de Villers in a landslide victory that secured the Liberal Party a supermajority, defined in Satavian politics as a majority across the country and in each province, a feat not repeated since. The Liberal Party secured 65.94% of the vote, a margin that remains to this day the largest popular vote share in Satavian history.
The Liberal Party, who had governed uninterrupted since the restoration of democracy in 1976, were re-elected by an enormous margin, securing 89 MPs (out of a possible 119) and 65 Senators (out of a possible 84). This solidified the slim majority held by the Liberal Party since the 1980 election. Meanwhile, It remains to date the largest majority as a proportion of available seats. The Conservative & Country Party opposition experienced a wipeout defeat, emerging with only 12 MPs and 11 Senators, their worst election result since the party's formation in 1878. The United Party, lead by Theophilus Verwoerd continued their trend of declining electoral results, taking 12 MPs and only 5 Senators, coupled with a falling vote share. The SDP, lead by Patrick Turcan, maintained their total number of MPs - five - but lost one Senator, whilst Turcan himself would be defeated in the Division of Exeter Point to a Liberal candidate. Both the Labour Party and Socialist Workers Party suffered a complete collapse.
In the election, future Prime Ministers Milo Malan, Rian de Klerk and John Barrett, future opposition leader Damian Bean and future President Philip Fairfax all entered parliament for the first time.
