General elections were held in Denmark on 23 January 1968. The Social Democratic Party remained the largest in the Folketing, with 62 of the 179 seats. Voter turnout was 89% in Denmark proper, 57% in the Faroe Islands and 56% in Greenland. They were the last elections in which the old counties were used as constituencies.
Following the elections, the incumbent Krag government resigned and was replaced by a coalition of the right-wing Conservative People's Party, Venstre and the Danish Social Liberal Party.
