This list shows the members of the Landtag of the Principality of Liechtenstein , which emerged from the Landtag elections of 1906. The electors elected by the people between July 18 and 21, 1906 met on July 28, 1906 in Vaduz and on July 30 in Mauren. Seven MPs were elected in the Oberland constituency and five in the Unterland constituency. In addition, on August 23, 1906, three deputies were appointed by Prince Johann II .

In order to be elected to the state parliament, an absolute majority of all electors present was required in the first two ballots. If not enough members could be elected by then, a relative majority was sufficient in the third ballot.

Number of electors

According to the Liechtenstein constitution, the state parliament was not elected directly, but by means of electors. Between July 18 and 21, 1906, 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 1906 state elections.

List of members

The electorate of the Oberland constituency met on July 28, 1906 in the Niggschen Gasthaus in Vaduz, today the Hotel Schlössle, to carry out the election of the MPs. The electors from Unterland met two days later in the school house 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 115 were present, and all but one of the 74 Unterland electors were present.
