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 81 included the city of Aussig . In the Reichsrat election in 1907, Anton Schrammel emerged victorious from the Social Democrats, but in 1911 Schrammel had to admit defeat to Rudolf Lodgman von Auen in the first ballot .
