The 1869 general election elected the fourth legislature of the French Second Empire. The first round was held on 23 May the second round on 6 June. These elections resulted in a victory for the liberal opposition to the authoritarian French Second Empire.

Nationwide, the regime won only 57% of the vote, and in Paris, the opposition parties (mostly Republicans) won a swooping 75% of the vote. However, in the countryside, the regime won large majorities.
