Echuca by-election, 1907

A by-election was held for the Australian House of Representatives seat of Echuca on 10 July 1907. This was triggered after the result at the 1906 election, which saw Anti-Socialist candidate Albert Palmer narrowly defeat Protectionist MP Thomas Kennedy, was declared void.

Palmer was re-elected at the by-election.
