The election had been provoked by a vote of censure in Palmerston's government over his approach to the Arrow affair which led to the Second Opium War. Aged 72 Palmerston became the oldest person to win a general election for the first time. {{As of|2019}} there has been no person as old as Palmerston to win a general election for the first time. {{UK general election navigation|clear=none|1847|1852|1857|1859|1865}}Results{{Election Summary Begin with Candidates| title = UK General Election 1857}}{{Election Summary Party with Candidates||party = Whigs (British political party) |candidates = 507 |seats = 377 |gain = |loss = |net = +53 |votes = 464,127 |votes % = 64.77 |seats % =57.65 |plus/minus = +7.0 |government = yes |vps = 1,231 }}{{Election Summary Party with Candidates| |party = Conservative Party (UK) |candidates = 351 |seats = 264 |gain = |loss = |net = −66 |votes = 239,712 |votes % = 33.45 |seats % =40.37 |plus/minus = −7.1 |vps = 908 }}{{Election Summary with Candidates| |party = Chartist |candidates = 1 |seats = 0 |gain = 0 |loss = 0 |net = 0 |votes = 614 |votes % = 0.1 |seats % =0 |plus/minus = −0.1 |vps = N/A }} |}{{hatnote|Total votes cast: 716,552.[2][3]}} Summary{{bar box|title=Popular vote |titlebar=#ddd |width=600px |barwidth=380px |bars={{bar percent|Whig|{{Whigs (British political party)/meta/color}}|64.77}}{{bar percent|Conservative|{{Conservative Party (UK)/meta/color}}|33.45}}{{bar percent|Others|#777777|1.69}}{{bar percent|Chartist|#dddddd|0.09}} }} Seats summary{{bar box|title=Parliamentary seats |titlebar=#ddd |width=600px |barwidth=380px |bars={{bar percent|Whig|{{Whigs (British political party)/meta/color}}|57.65}}{{bar percent|Conservative|{{Conservative Party (UK)/meta/color}}|40.37}}{{bar percent|Others|#777777|1.99}} }} Notes1. ^Including Peelites. 2. ^"Others" are mostly Irish Independent Opposition. 3. ^The Conservative total votes cast and MPs includes around 26 Peelites—some reference works claim it was as few as 18.
