General elections in the First Ryccian Republic took place on October the 9th, 1930.

This was the first election were royalists were permitted to participate under the politics of the Republic. Despite his party's losses, Sean Hoxe, the man considered the Father of the Republic and of the Nation to this day, celebrated the results, for, in his judgement, the fact all sectors of society, even those who were "anti-republican", could contest a free and fair election was a victory for the nascent Ryccian democratic system and its stability.
