Number of electors

According to the Liechtenstein constitution, the state parliament was not elected directly, but by means of electors. Between March 28th and April 3rd, 1890, the elections took place in the school houses of all parishes. The number of electors that a municipality provided was based on the number of inhabitants of the municipality. For every 100 inhabitants it provided two electors, whereby the number of inhabitants was rounded to a full 100. The eleven municipalities provided the following electors for the state elections in 1890.
