General elections were held in Swaziland between 19 and 20 April 1967. Unlike the previous election in which there were two voter rolls for black and white voters, the election was held with a single voter roll. The result was a second successive victory for the royalist Imbokodvo National Movement, which won 79.4% of the vote and all 24 seats.[1] Voter turnout was 97.8%.[2]
