Legislative elections were held in South-West Africa on 3 July 1929.[1] The whites-only election saw a victory for the United National South West Party, which won eight of the twelve seats in the Legislative Assembly. However, the territory's administrator, Albertus Johannes Werth, appointed three Germans and three South Africans to the assembly in an attempt to neutralise the result.
