White Carniolans in interwar elections

Abstract

From 1923 White Carniola was an electoral district under the electoral unit of Ljubljana–Novo mesto. Among 1418 election candidates in the old Yugoslavia, we can identify thirty-eight from White Carniola. Two of them were also elected. The electoral district of White Carniola was too small to ensure its candidates a seat, even though the party garnered strong local support. Most candidates were landowners by occupation. White Carniola’s voters gave their support to a list of candidates that did not win in the majority of electoral districts under the electoral unit of Ljubljana–Novo mesto.
