Provincial elections were held in Slovak Province on 2 December 1928. The elections were marked by a drop in support for the Slovak People's Party,[1] whilst the Republican Party of Farmers and Peasants emerged as the largest party in the Assembly of Slovakia.[2]

Background

The Slovak Assembly was established on 14 July 1927 when the National Assembly abolished the counties of Czechoslovakia, replacing them with four provinces, one of which was Slovakia.[3] The law took effect on 1 July 1928.[4]

Electoral system

The 54-member Assembly had two-thirds of its members elected and the other third appointed by the national government.[3][5]
