Parliamentary elections were held in Serbia on 20 February 1877 to elect members of the Grand National Assembly.^[1] The elections were called by Prince Milan on 13 February in order to convene a Grand National Assembly, which would have four times as many members as a normal National Assembly.^[1] The newly elected Assembly was to convene on 26 February in the National Theatre.^[2]

A majority of the elected candidates were in favour of peace with the Ottoman Empire.^[3] For the first time a Jewish candidate was elected, winning a seat in Belgrade by a large majority after receiving the backing of all parties.^[3]^[4]

The elections were marred by violence in Kragujevac, Jagodina and Užice, with pressure to elect candidates favourable to the incumbent government and interference from the Karađorđević dynasty blamed.^[5] The election results in Kragujevac and Jagodina were later annulled due to the fighting.^[6] Government pressure resulted in the election of several Liberals in Belgrade despite the city being a Conservative stronghold, with over 600 voters in the city being prevented from voting by delays.^[4]
