The Aerlan General Elections of 1730 were held throughout Aerla during the month of 1730.7 AN. During this election, all seats in the National Assembly and the Presidency were to be voted on by the general public. This election was also the first to feature several smaller political factions such as the Hatayyian Democratic Party and the Ranentsian Independence Party

During the election, 3 parties put forward candidates for presidency. The Reformist Bloc renominated Basil Fitzroy, the Conservative Bloc nominating Agalore-born barrister Carmela Stieler, and the Agrarian Bloc nominating journalist Paul Godfrey. The Nazarene Bloc, who fielded a candidate during the 1721 AN election, failed to nominate a candidate by the national nomination deadline.
