List of members of the Assembly of Representatives of the Duchy of Gotha (1848–1849)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list names the members of the Gothaer Landtag (Assembly of Members of the Duchy of Gotha) in its electoral period 1848–1849 .

The new election regulations of June 28, 1848 provided for the election of an assembly of members of the Duchy of Gotha. This consisted of 20 MPs who were elected indirectly in one-person constituencies. There was no census and no class differences. In August and September the new state parliament was elected according to this right to vote and met for the first time in the state house on October 2, 1848. For the elected representatives see the list of members of the Chamber of Deputies of the Duchy of Gotha (1848–1849) . The central task was to draw up a constitution and, in this context, a right to vote for future elections. Here the proponents of a direct election prevailed. However, there was a majority of one vote in favor of introducing the census suffrage : only citizens subject to income or wealth tax should have the right to vote. On March 19, 1849, the state parliament approved the new constitution. This also included declaring the domains as state property.
