VacancyThe seat had become vacant on the elevation to the peerage of the constituency's Unionist Member of Parliament (MP), F. E. Smith, as Baron Birkenhead. He had been raised to the peerage to take up the post of Lord Chancellor, an action described by the left wing Morning Post as "carrying a joke too far". Electoral historySmith had held the seat since the 1918 general election, when he was endorsed by the Coalition Government. Before that he held its predecessor seat, Liverpool Walton since the 1906 general election. {{Election box begin ||title=1918 General Election: Liverpool West Derby}}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Unionist Party (UK) |candidate = F.

ResultsTurnout was unsurprisingly low so soon after a General Election. Hall won the seat by a much reduced margin. {{Election box begin ||title=Liverpool West Derby by-election, 1919}}{{Election box candidate with party link coalition 1918| |party = Unionist Party (UK) |candidate = William Reginald Hall |votes = 6,062 |percentage = 56.5 |change = -10.9 }}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Labour Party (UK) |candidate = George Nelson |votes = 4,670 |percentage = 43.5 |change = +10.9 }}{{Election box majority| |votes = 1,392 |percentage = 13.0 |change = -21.8 }}{{Election box turnout| |votes = 10,732 |percentage = 34.3 |change = -20.8 }}{{Election box hold with party link| |winner = Unionist Party (UK) |swing = -10.9 }}{{Election box end 1918}} See also
