The electoral district of Bohemia 104 was a constituency for the elections to the House of Representatives in the Austrian crown land of Bohemia . 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 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 Böhmen 104 comprised the judicial districts Gablonz , Tannwald and Rochlitz as well as the municipality Bösching (from the judicial district Turnau ), without the cities Rochlitz an der Iser ( electoral district Böhmen 96 ) or Gablonz and Tannwald ( electoral district Böhmen 77 ). The Social Democrat Josef Barth emerged victorious from the 1907 Reichsrat election , but he died in 1910. Adolf Glöckner was able to prevail in the Reichsrat replacement election in 1910. He was replaced by Adam Fahrner from the German Workers' Party in the 1911 Reichsrat election .
