The electoral district was created in 1907 with the introduction of the Reichsrat election regulations and existed until the collapse of the Habsburg monarchy .

history

After the Reichsrat had decided on the general, equal, secret and direct male suffrage in autumn 1906, the major reform of the electoral law through the sanctioning of Emperor Franz Joseph I came into effect on January 26, 1907 . With the new Reichsrat election order, a total of 516 electoral districts were created, with one member being elected in each constituency with the exception of Galicia in the course of the Reichsrat election. The MP had to prevail with an absolute majority in the first ballot or in a runoff election. The constituency of Austria under Enns 13 comprised that part of Vienna's 6th district of Mariahilf , which is north of the Gumpendorfer Strasse, Hirschengasse, Liniengasse, Wallgasse, Gumpendorfer Strasse line.

In the 1907 Reichsrat election , Robert Pattai ( Christian Social Party ) emerged victorious in the first ballot. In the 1911 Reichsrat election , the Social Democrat Karl Leuthner prevailed.
