Abstract

Based on archival and newspaper material the author analysed the elections to the municipal committee of the Municipality Celje-suburbs in 1883/84, and tried to present them in the light of »female suffrage«. This was used as means of manipulation by the political party of Germans as well as of the Slovenes. In very different ways they both tried to acquire election warrants from their female voters.
