1966 Liechtenstein local elections
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Local elections were held in Liechtenstein on 16 January 1966 to elect the municipal councils and the mayors of the eleven municipalities.[1]
Under the municipal law of 1959, the mayors of the respective municipalities were elected by a majority vote. The municipal councillors and their deputies were elected by open list proportional representation. Voters vote for a party list and then may strike through candidates they do not wish to cast a preferential vote for and may add names of candidates from other lists. Only men aged 20 or over were eligible to vote.[2]
