General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 5 April 1926.[1] Early elections were called following a government crisis where the Christian-Social People's Party refused to elect Ludwig Marxer to government.[2] The result was a victory for the ruling Christian-Social People's Party, which won 9 of the 15 seats in the Landtag.[3]
