General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 5 February 1922, with a second round on 16 February.[1] They were the first elections held under the 1921 constitution, which resulted in some changes to the electoral system. The result was a victory for the opposition Christian-Social People's Party, which won 11 of the 15 seats.[2]
Electoral system
Under the new constitution the three seats in the Landtag appointed by the Prince were abolished.[3] The number of seats in Oberland was increased from seven to nine, and in Unterland from five to six.[3] The voting age was lowered from 24 to 21, although women were still not allowed to vote.[3]
