Elections to the European Advisory Council were held in Bechuanaland Protectorate in December 1930.[1]
Electoral system
The European Advisory Council consisted of seven elected members, all of which were elected from single-member constituencies.[1]
Voting was restricted to people who were British subjects of European descent, had lived in the protectorate for at least a year prior to the election and who also:[1]
- owned or leased land with a value of at least £200
- owned stock used for farming with a value of over £200
- held a general dealer's licence.
- had an annual income over at least £200 from sources in the protectorate
Candidates were required to be nominated by five registered voters, and make a deposit of £25. The deposit was only refunded if they received more than 20% of the votes obtained by the winning candidate.[1]
