Going into the election, the Labor government will be led by Premier Roger Cook, who replaced Mark McGowan after his resignation in June 2023. Cook will attempt to win a first full term against the National–Liberal opposition, currently led by Shane Love and Libby Mettam respectively, after Labor's two consecutive election victories under McGowan.

Candidates will be elected to single-member seats in the Legislative Assembly via full-preferential instant-runoff voting. In the Legislative Council, 37 candidates are elected across the state, which functions as a single electorate.
