The Saskatchewan general election of 2003 was the twenty-fifth provincial election held in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It was held on November 5, 2003, to elect the 58 members of the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan (MLAs). The election was called on October 8 by Premier Lorne Calvert.

Campaign
Going into the election, the popularity of the New Democratic Party of Saskatchewan had declined because of controversy on a number of issues. Voters in this agrarian province were disgruntled because of a mediocre harvest and a disastrous summer for cattle producers - the American border had been closed to Canadian beef due to fears of mad cow disease.
Election issues included outmigration (the province's population is falling because young people leave the province to look for work), privatization of public transit and energy supplies, and utility rates.
During the campaign, the NDP was attacked for an internal cartoon that had been leaked to the media. It depicted conservative Saskatchewan Party leader Elwin Hermanson loading NDP sympathizers onto rail cars. The cartoon referred to speculation that, if elected, Hermanson would replace civil servants who were NDP supporters with Saskatchewan Party supporters.
Unlike many of the other provincial elections held in 2003, the election was widely regarded as too close to call up until a large proportion of the polls had reported. The NDP's fourth straight win, with a majority government no less, surprised observers, who believed the NDP would be affected by the poor pre-election conditions. All of its cabinet ministers were re-elected, except for two who had defected to the party from the Liberals.
After Elwin Hermanson proved unable to lead his party to power, he resigned as leader on November 18, 2003.
Although speculation was high that they could form the balance of power in the case of a minority government, the Liberals lost both of their seats.
