Nicolet was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly of the Parliament of the Province of Canada, in Canada East, centred on the town of Nicolet. It was created in 1841 and was based on the previous electoral district of the same name for the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada. It was represented by one member in the Legislative Assembly.
In 1853, the provincial Parliament redrew the electoral map. The boundaries for Nicolet were altered to some extent in the new map, which came into force for the 1854 general elections.
The electoral district was abolished in 1867, upon the creation of Canada and the province of Quebec.
