Parliamentary elections were held in Colombia on 15 March 1953 to elect the Chamber of Representatives.[1] The Liberal Party and the Communist Party both boycotted the elections, and as a result, the seats reserved for the minority party were left vacant. The Conservative Party won the remainder.[2]
