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 of Bohemia 91 included the cities of Eger , Franzensbad and Haslau . Edmund Jäger from the Pan-German Association , later the German Radical Party, emerged victorious from the two Reichsrat elections in 1907 and 1911, winning in the runoff election against a candidate from the Social Democrats.
