The 2073 Australian Federal Election was held on 9 September 2070 in which the all seats in the unicameral House of Representatives were up for election. Determining the members of the 2073-2076 Parliament, it was won by the 33 year incumbent Australian Nationalist party, led by the 82 year old Andrew Burges.

Due to the highly publicized personal rivalry between the newly elected Coalition leader, Daniel Crean and the Labor leader Amy Pelt, Andrew Burges managed to increase his majority in the House despite his initial unpopularity during the beginning of the year (which fell into the mid 40's), and won his 13th consecutive electoral victory.
