1915 Danish Folketing election
Election for the lower house of Danish Parliament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Folketing elections were held in Denmark on 6 May 1915. In order to make amendments to the constitution, the government called for the dissolution of both the Folketing and the Landsting to allow a new Rigsdag to make the revisions. However, as this was during World War I, no campaigning took place,[1] and 104 of the 114 were uncontested.[2]
