Parliamentary elections were held in Iceland on 10 September 1914.[1] They were the last parliamentary elections in which only men could vote.[1]
Electoral system
The 30 elected members of the Althing were elected from single or double member constituencies by first-past-the-post voting, with six members appointed to the upper house by the Danish monarch.[2][3] Suffrage was limited to men aged 25 or over and who met one of several set requirements including being a civil servant, holding a medical (or similar) degree, being a graduate of a university or seminary, or paying tax of at least four króna (or for farmers, any level of tax), and who were not in receipt of poor relief.[3]
Results
7,475 of the 13,400 registered voters participated in the elections.[4]
