General elections were held in Cuba on 1 June 1948. Carlos Prío Socarrás won the presidential election running under the Auténtico-Republican Alliance banner, whilst the Partido Auténtico emerged as the largest party in the House of Representatives, winning 29 of the 70 seats. Voter turnout was 78.7%.

The next elections were scheduled to be held on 1 June 1952, but former president Fulgencio Batista seized power in the 1952 Cuban coup d'état on 10 March 1952.
