Number of electors
According to the Liechtenstein constitution, the state parliament was not elected directly, but by means of electors. Between August 25 and 28, 1902, the elections took place in the school buildings 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 1902 state elections.

List of members
The electors of the Oberland constituency met on September 4, 1902 in the Niggschen Gasthaus in Vaduz, today the Hotel Schlössle, to carry out the election of the MPs. The electors from Unterland met the day before, on September 3, 1902, in the school building in Mauren. Since 1877, the rule was that the election should always start at the announced time, even if not all electors were present. Therefore, of the 118 electors elected from the Oberland constituency, only 117 were present, but all 74 Unterland electors.
