Early general elections were held in Malta on 24 February 1904, after all the candidates elected in January resigned immediately after the elections in protest against the 1903 "Chamberlain" Constitution. All eight candidates were again unopposed and all resigned immediately after the elections, forcing further elections in April.

Background

The elections were held under the Chamberlain Constitution, with members elected from eight single-member constituencies.
