Parliamentary elections were held in Czechoslovakia on 27 October 1929.Dieter Nohlen & Philip Stöver (2010) Elections in Europe: A data handbook, p471 978-3-8329-5609-7 The Republican Party of Farmers and Peasants, emerged as the largest party, winning 46 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and 24 seats in the Senate. Voter turnout was 90.2% in the Chamber election and 78.8% for the Senate.Nohlen & Stöver, p472 The rightward shift of the 1925 elections was reversed, with moderate centre-left groups (Social Democrats and Czechoslovak National Socialists) increasing their vote shares whilst the Communist Party suffered a set-back.J.

Background
The 1929 election took place at a time of relative prosperity, just before the Great Depression.
The Communist Party was the sole multinational political party in the country at the time.Tatjana Lichtenstein Zionists in Interwar Czechoslovakia: Minority Nationalism and the Politics of Belonging https://books.google.com/books?id=NmOjCwAAQBAJ&pg=PA291 18 April 2016 Indiana University Press 978-0-253-01872-4 291 It had emerged as a major force in the 1925 election and had around 150,000 members in 1928. In 1929 leadership shifted to a younger generation and a major purge of party ranks took place.
The Czechoslovak National Democrats contested the election in Slovakia together with the Slovak National Party led by Martin Rázus.James Ramon Felak At the Price of the Republic: Hlinka's Slovak People's Party, 1929–1938 https://books.google.com/books?id=sOlD_8Kw0K0C&pg=PA94 15 June 1995 University of Pittsburgh Pre 978-0-8229-7694-3 94 Nevertheless, relations between Rázus and the leader of the National Democrats in Slovakia Milan Ivanka were strained, as the former was fiercely autonomist and the latter a strong supporter of Czechoslovak nationhood.
In Slovakia, Hlinka's Slovak People's Party resigned from the coalition government on 8 October 1929.Richard Crampton Benjamin Crampton Atlas of Eastern Europe in the Twentieth Century https://books.google.com/books?id=zmVuBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA59 11 June 2016 Routledge 978-1-317-79952-8 59 The move followed a long controversy around the legal case of the party newspaper editor Vojtech Tuka, who was sentenced for espionage and treason on 5 October 1929.Hugh Agnew The Czechs and the Lands of the Bohemian Crown https://books.google.com/books?id=Vxaq_7TSWI4C&pg=PA188 1 September 2013 Hoover Press 978-0-8179-4493-3 188 The Tuka affair had resulted in an internal rift in the party, with the expelled anti-Tuka faction (led by Juriga and Tománek) setting up their own Juriga's Slovak People's Party.James Ramon Felak At the Price of the Republic: Hlinka's Slovak People's Party, 1929–1938 https://books.google.com/books?id=sOlD_8Kw0K0C&pg=PA61 15 June 1995 University of Pittsburgh Pre 978-0-8229-7694-3 61–62
Results
Hlinka's Slovak People's Party saw a decline compared to the 1925 vote, being reduced from 23 seats to 19.Stanislav J. Kirschbaum The A to Z of Slovakia https://books.google.com/books?id=PzoDMWJUD9sC&pg=PA264 10 May 2010 Scarecrow Press 978-1-4616-7215-9 xl, 264 One interpretation is that two years of government participation without achieving Slovak autonomy had weakened the party. Moreover, the party had an ambiguous stance during the Tuka affair. The Juriga faction failed to make any impact in the election.
The Czechoslovak Social Democrats won five seats from Slovakia, an increase by three seats compared to the 1925 election.Stanislav J. Kirschbaum The A to Z of Slovakia https://books.google.com/books?id=PzoDMWJUD9sC&pg=PA94 10 May 2010 Scarecrow Press 978-1-4616-7215-9 94 The Communist Party on the other hand retreated from 5 seats in Slovakia, compared to 8 seats in 1925.Stanislav J. Kirschbaum The A to Z of Slovakia https://books.google.com/books?id=PzoDMWJUD9sC&pg=PA78 10 May 2010 Scarecrow Press 978-1-4616-7215-9 78 Magyar and German parties won 9 seats from Slovakia.
The Czechoslovak National Socialists, which lacked widespread support in the area, managed to win two seat from Slovakia.Stanislav J. Kirschbaum The A to Z of Slovakia https://books.google.com/books?id=PzoDMWJUD9sC&pg=PA93 10 May 2010 Scarecrow Press 978-1-4616-7215-9 93, 223 This was the best result for the party in Slovakia during the years of the First Republic. Another Czech party trying to build a base in Slovakia was the Czechoslovak People's Party, which managed to get its local leader Martin Mičura elected.
The Jewish Party, which had failed to win representation in 1925, managed to win two seats through an alliance with three Polish parties.Kateřina Čapková Czechs, Germans, Jews?: National Identity and the Jews of Bohemia https://books.google.com/books?id=hb48rCzYBJ0C&pg=PA223 30 May 2012 Berghahn Books 978-0-85745-475-1 223Tatjana Lichtenstein Zionists in Interwar Czechoslovakia: Minority Nationalism and the Politics of Belonging https://books.google.com/books?id=NmOjCwAAQBAJ&pg=PA276 18 April 2016 Indiana University Press 978-0-253-01872-4 276 Its deputies were Ludvík Singer from Bohemia and Julius Reiz from Slovakia.
General Radola Gajda's list ('League against Bound Tickets'), which called for the formation of a corporativist state, failed to make a major headway but won three seats (Gajda, Jiří Stříbrný and Karel Pergler). Gajda's political line was fascist, anti-Semitic and anti-German.Nancy Meriwether Wingfield Flag Wars and Stone Saints: How the Bohemian Lands Became Czech https://books.google.com/books?id=kWla_xARjI0C&pg=PA207 2007 Harvard University Press 978-0-674-02582-0 207
