- Source: 1905 City of Wellington by-election
The 1905 City of Wellington by-election was a by-election in the New Zealand electorate of City of Wellington, a multi-member urban seat at the bottom of the North Island.
The by-election was held on 6 April 1905, and was precipitated by the death of sitting Liberal member of parliament George Fisher.
The by-election was won by Fisher's son Francis Fisher who stood as an Independent Liberal. Fisher beat Charles Izard and John Hutcheson. Izard would be successful in the Wellington North electorate in the 1905 election later in the year, and Hutcheson had previously represented the electorate.
