1986 Liechtenstein general election


General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 31 January and 2 February 1986. The result was a victory for the Patriotic Union, which won 8 of the 15 seats in the Landtag. The Progressive Citizens' Party won seven seats, whilst the new Free List narrowly failed to cross the 8% electoral threshold and did not obtain representation. The coalition government of the FBP and the VU continued.
They were the first elections in which women could vote, as until the passing of a referendum in 1984, suffrage had been limited to men. Emma Eigenmann was the only woman elected, becoming the first female member of the Landtag.

Results

Note that the total number of votes is lower than the total for the parties, as each voter has as many votes as there are seats in a constituency, and thus can cast multiple votes.
