Parliamentary elections were held in Andorra on 31 August 1933,[1] the first held under universal male suffrage. The extension of the franchise to all men over 21 followed social unrest referred to as the Andorran Revolution.[2] As political parties were not legalised until 1993, all candidates ran as independents.[3]
Background
The elections, called by the co-princes, took place amid the occupation of the country by
Young Andorrans. The Tribunal de Corts subsequently dismissed the General Council elected in 1932. Faced with the Council's resistance to dissolution, however, the co-princes sent a contingent of gendarmes to Andorra on 19 August and ordered the elections to be held on 31 August.[4]

Results
The interpretation of the results is complicated because there were no formal political parties, instead councilors were linked to groups that could vary in opinion.
Elected members
The official results were communicated by the Consul General of Canillo to the French veguer.[8]
