National Council constituency of Basel-Landschaft

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The National Council constituency of Basel-Landschaft is an electoral district for elections to the Swiss National Council . It covers the entire canton of Basel-Landschaft and has existed since 1848.

Electoral process

Major elections were used until 1917 . In the sense of the Romansh majority election , a candidate needed an absolute majority of the votes in order to be elected. Several ballots may have been necessary to distribute all the seats; each voter had as many votes as there were seats to be allocated. Proportional suffrage has been used since 1919 , in which the seats are allocated to the lists available for selection in proportion to all votes cast.

Name and number of seats

During the Majorz era, in official use, consecutive numbering was used throughout Switzerland, arranged according to the order of the cantons in the Swiss Federal Constitution . The electoral district of Basel-Landschaft was number 24 from 1851, number 25 from 1872 and number 26 from 1881; the numbering has not been used since 1919.

The number of seats available to the Basel-Landschaft constituency varied due to the population development:

  • 1848 to 1863: 2 seats
  • 1863 to 1911: 3 seats
  • 1911 to 1963: 4 seats
  • 1963 to 1971: 5 seats
  • since 1971: 7 seats
