History
A Jewish National Party (Script error: No such module "Lang".) was already founded in 1892 at Lemberg (Lviv), then the capital of the Austrian Kingdom of Galicia, as part of the Zionist movement in Austria-Hungary. It took part in the regional Sejm elections as well as in the 1907 Cisleithanian legislative election, gaining four parliamentary seats at the Austrian Imperial Council:
- Benno Straucher from Czernowitz, founder of the regional Jewish National People's Party in 1906
- Adolf Stand, Brody
- Arthur Mahler
- Heinrich Gabel, East Galicia.[1]
Only Straucher was re-elected at the 1911 election.
The Jewish National Party took part in the 16 February 1919 election to the 1919 Constituent Assembly and got 7,760 votes (0.26%).[2] Its only elected MP was Robert Stricker,[3] a board member of the Vienna Israelite Community.
At the next elections on 17 October 1920 a change in the electoral law eliminated all the minor parties from the Parliament. At the 21 October 1923 elections, a new party, the Jewish Electoral Community (Script error: No such module "Lang".) failed again to elect a representative, with 24,970 votes (0.8%), as the Jewish Party (Script error: No such module "Lang".) on the 24 April 1927 elections, with 10,845 votes (0.3%), the Jewish List (Script error: No such module "Lang".) on the 9 November 1930 elections, with 2,133 votes (0.1%).[2]
