Graf Andrzej Kazimierz Potocki (10 June 1861 – 12 April 1908) was an Austro-Hungarian Polish aristocrat and politician who was Statthalter of the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria from 1903 until his assassination by Ukrainian nationalist Myroslav Sichynskyi in 1908. A hardliner against Ukrainian nationalism, Potocki oversaw violence against Ukrainians during the 1908 local election to the Diet of Galicia and Lodomeria, which prompted his assassination.
