This article presents detailed results of the 2012 Japanese general election. It lists all elected Representatives in the 300 single-member districts and the 11 regional proportional representation (PR) blocks.

District results only for winner, runner-up and any other candidate above 20% of the vote, format: Candidate (Party – endorsing parties) vote share. Endorsements by parties that have not nominated any candidates themselves (e.g. Okinawa Socialist Mass Party, Green Party) are not included. Party affiliations as of election day, subject to change at any time, composition may have already changed by the opening session of the first post-election Diet (see the List of members of the Diet of Japan).
