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 82 included the city of Teplitz-Schönau . In the 1907 Reichsrat election, Johann Husak from the German Progressives emerged victorious, and in 1911 he was replaced by his party colleague Wilhelm Keller .
