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 rules, a total of 516 electoral districts were created, each with a member to be elected, which were determined by direct election with a possible runoff. The constituency of Bohemia 101 included the judicial district of Friedland . In the 1907 Reichsrat election, the Social Democrat Leopold Winarsky emerged victorious in the first round . In the 1911 Reichsrat election , however, the German radical Franz Tobisch prevailed in the runoff election.
