General elections were held in Turkey on February 28, 1943.[1] They were the last single-party elections in the country, as the Republican People's Party was the single-party in the country at the time.
Electoral system
The elections were held under the Ottoman electoral law passed in 1908,[1] which provided for a two-stage process. In the first stage, voters elected secondary electors (one for the first 750 voters in a constituency, then one for every additional 500 voters). In the second stage the secondary electors elected the members of the Turkish Grand National Assembly.[2]
