Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Politics of Niger
General Council elections were held in Niger on 15 December 1946, with a second round of voting on 5 January 1947.[1] The General Council had been established by decree on 25 October 1946.[2]
Electoral system
The 30 seats in the General Council were elected using two colleges. The first college was restricted to French citizens and elected ten members from two constituencies. The second college was for Africans,[2] and elected twenty members from nine constituencies, which were based on the regions, which included Fada N'Gourma and Dori, both of which were transferred to Upper Volta in September 1947.[1]
Campaign
The campaign for the elections was based primarily on the clientele of local leaders rather than political parties or manifestos.[1]
