Parliamentary elections were held in Serbia on 12 December 1880 to elect members of the National Assembly. [1] As expected, the elections resulted in a majority for the government, whose supporters won 94 seats, whilst Radicals won only 18 seats. [1] [2] By January 1881 the number of government supporters had risen to over 100, whilst the Radicals had split. [3]

Background

Prince Milan signed a decree dissolving the National Assembly and calling elections on 5 November. [4] Unlike the previous elections in which many candidates were returned unopposed, most seats were contested. [1]

Results

The Serbian Progressive Party won 127 seats while the Liberal Party won 7. [5]

Aftermath

Supplementary elections were subsequently held in December 1881 [ sr] and May 1882 [ sr].
