The electoral district Tirol 11 was an electoral district for the elections to the House of Representatives in the Austrian Crown Land of Tirol . 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 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 member of parliament has to prevail with an absolute majority in the first ballot or in a runoff election. The constituency of Tyrol 11 included the judicial districts of Reutte , Silz , Telfs without the municipalities of Telfs , Reutte and Vils belonging to constituency 3 .
In the 1907 Reichsrat election , Peter Unterkircher ( Christian Social Party ) emerged victorious after the runoff election. Unterkircher was able to defend his mandate in the 1911 Reichsrat election. Unterkircher was able to win more than three quarters of the votes for the Christian Social Party in each of his election victories, the second strongest party in the electoral district was the Conservative Party with around 18 percent each. The Social Democrats, on the other hand, were only able to win a few dozen votes in this region.
