history

Originally there was only one constituency in the state elections in Burgenland. After the 1977 regional election in Burgenland had been challenged by the Constitutional Court, the Constitutional Court recognized that the designation of “constituencies” in Article 26 of the Federal Constitutional Act , i.e. in the plural, must be interpreted as meaning that there must be at least two constituencies per federal state. As a result, the affected federal states of Carinthia, Salzburg and Burgenland changed their state election regulations. Burgenland carried out the necessary adaptation with the 1978 state election order passed on October 30th, which divided Burgenland into four constituencies. The Oberpullendorf district and the Mattersburg district together belonged to constituency II . As early as 1995, with the state election regulations in 1995, another reform of the constituencies took place, in which the number of constituencies was increased from four to seven and the Oberpullendorf district was raised to a separate constituency, constituency 4 .
