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 the Enns 3 comprised the Parkviertel or that part of Vienna's 1st district, Innere Stadt , which was bordered by Liebenberggasse, Singerstraße, Kärntnerstraße, Opernring, Eschenbachgasse , Getreidemarkt , Friedrichstraße , Lothringerstraße, Wienfluss, Wollzeile and Parkring.

In the 1907 Reichsrat election , Hermann Bielohlawek ( Christian Social Party ) emerged victorious in the first ballot with 51 percent. In the 1911 Reichsrat election, Bielohlawek lost his mandate to Max Friedmann , who won the runoff election with 54 percent.
