Parliamentary 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 votes, whilst the new Free List narrowly failed to cross the 8% electoral threshold and did not obtain representation.[1]
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.
Party | Votes | % | Seats | +/- |
---|---|---|---|---|
Patriotic Union | 46,793 | 50.19 | 8 | 0 |
Progressive Citizens' Party | 39,853 | 42.75 | 7 | 0 |
Free List | 6,582 | 7.06 | 0 | New |
Invalid/blank votes | - | - | - | |
Total | 9,581 | 100 | 15 | 0 |
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.
