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 Bohemia 45 comprised the judicial districts of Königgrätz , Nechanitzl and Chlumetz , with the exception of the following municipalities:

• from the judicial district Hradec Kralove the same city Hradec Kralove and the community Hohenbruck ( constituency 24 )
• from the judicial district Nechanitz the city of the same name Nechanitz ( electoral district 24 )
