In the elections for the Chamber of Representatives the result was a victory for the Liberal Party, which won 70 of the 122 seats. Voter turnout was 70%, although only 51,465 people were eligible to vote. Under the alternating system, elections were only held in four out of the nine provinces: Hainaut, Limburg, Liège and East Flanders. Special elections were held in the arrondissements of Antwerp, Brussels and Leuven. (en) Op dinsdag 12 juni 1866 werden wetgevende verkiezingen gehouden in België. 58 Kamerzetels werden herverkozen, namelijk die in de provincies Henegouwen, Limburg, Luik en Oost-Vlaanderen. Daarnaast kregen enkele arrondissementen zetels erbij wegens de bevolkingsaangroei. In totaal kwamen er acht zetels bij: drie in regulier te verkiezen arrondissementen, en vijf in andere arrondissementen, waarvoor buitengewone verkiezingen werden gehouden. In totaal waren er dus 66 te verkiezen zetels. Van de acht nieuwe zetels gaan er twee naar katholieken en zes naar liberalen. In Gent en Borgworm winnen de liberalen telkens één zetel ten nadele van de katholieken. In totaal winnen de liberalen dus acht zetels en blijven de katholieken op status quo. De parlementaire zitting 1866-1867 werd op dinsdag 13 november 1866 geopend met een toespraak van de Koning, en op 14 november legden de nieuwe leden hun eed af. (nl) |
