1905 Dutch general election


General elections were held in the Netherlands on 16 June 1905, with a second round in some constituencies on 28 June. The General League of Roman Catholic Electoral Associations and the Liberal Union emerged as the largest party, winning each 25 of the 100 seats in the House of Representatives.

Electoral system

The 100 seats in the House of Representatives were elected in single-member constituencies using the two-round system.

Results

Several candidates ran in multiple districts. When they won in more than one seat they picked which seat to take. As a result, several by-elections took place shortly after the general election.
