The 2015 Hyōgo prefectural election (2015年兵庫県議会議員選挙, 2015-nen Hyōgo Kengikai Giin Senkyo) was an election for the Hyogo Prefectural Assembly held on 12 April 2015 as part of the 2015 unified local elections in Japan. The election saw the number of assembly members reduced from 89 to 87 and the number of electoral districts reduced from 41 to 40. Voting was held in 23 districts and representatives for the remaining 17 districts (including the two-member district of Tatsuno-Ibo) were elected unopposed. The election was held in the wake of the political expenses scandal that was exposed in July 2014 involving multiple assembly members and was notable for former assemblyman 's outburst of uncontrolled sobbing at a news conference.
