Parliamentary elections were held in Croatia-Slavonia in December 1911.[1] Despite efforts of Ban Nikola Tomašić to coerce voters to vote for pro-government parties,[1] the result was unfavourable as the government won only 21 seats.[2] Elections in 4 districts were suspended and in 1 district the results were challenged. On the last day of the elections Josip Frank, former leader of the Starčević's Party of Rights, died in Zagreb.[3]
