Parliamentary elections were held in Iceland on 28 October 1911.
Electoral system
The 30 elected members of the Althing were elected from single or double member constituencies by first-past-the-post voting, with six members appointed to the upper house by the Danish monarch. Suffrage was limited to men aged 25 or over and who met one of several set requirements including being a civil servant, holding a medical (or similar) degree, being a graduate of a university or seminary, or paying tax of at least four króna (or for farmers, any level of tax), and who were not in receipt of poor relief.
Results
10,303 of the 13,136 registered voters participated in the elections.
