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 76 included the city of Reichenberg . From the Imperial Council election in 1907 was Heinrich Prade produced by the German People's Party as the winner. Prade did not stand in the Reichsrat election in 1911 and was replaced by Hans Hartl .
