Parliamentary elections were held in Serbia on 26 April 1886 to elect members of the National Assembly. [1]
A new government was formed in Serbia in early 1886. Attempts by Jovan Ristić to form a government failed after King Milan refused to dissolve Parliament on the grounds that it was not a good time to have a general election during the Bulgarian Crisis. [2] It was also thought that whoever controlled the government would be able to influence the election results. [2]
However, after Milutin Garašanin formed a government, the King granted his request to dissolve Parliament. [1]
The new Parliament opened in July. [3] Whilst Ristić could not be elected due to being in receipt of a government pension, his supporters won around 15 seats, with the remainder of the 78 opposition seats being held by members of the People's Radical Party. [3] Pro-government groups held 82 seats, although 40 of them were appointed by the King. [3] However, prior to the election of a new government, the incumbent government had several opposition members arrested or disqualified from voting, reducing them to 68 seats. [3]
