Provincial elections were held in the Pakistani province of Sindh on 11 May 2013, alongside nationwide general elections and three other provincial elections in the provinces of Punjab, Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The remaining two territories of Pakistan, Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan, were ineligible to vote due to their disputed status.

The Pakistan Peoples Party, led by Syed Qaim Ali Shah, despite losing almost 10% of its vote, returned victorious in this election, losing only one seat overall.

Prior to this election, the Pakistan Peoples Party and Muttahida Qaumi Movement were in a coalition government with each other despite the fact that the PPP had enough seats to be able to form a government by themselves.

Overall, the election campaign for the Pakistan Peoples Party was based mainly on garnering support in Sindh, while the Muttahida Qaumi Movement campaign was mainly based in Karachi.
