A federal election was held on Saturday, 23 September 2043 to elect the members of the 20th Parliament of Craftia. The incumbent first-term centre-left Liberal Party of Craftia government, led by Prime Minister Kevin Abbott, was re-elected with an increased majority, defeating the opposition centre-right Craftian Conservative Party, led by Opposition Leader Vincent Leonard, after entering another coalition agreement with the National United Party, led by Bobby Trent.
This was the first election since 2031, and the second ever, in which the Liberals won a plurality of the popular vote. It tied with the Conservatives on 38 seats. The incumbent Liberal–United coalition government won 72 seats, a majority of 9, and Abbott was returned as Prime Minister. The Reform Party tumbled from fourth place to sixth place, winning only 4 seats (down from 16). This marked the end of Reform's position as third party in Craftian politics.
