Primele Alegeri Parlamentare Din Județul Năsăud, Organizate După Urcarea PE Tron a Regelui Carol II

The First Parliamentary Elections In Năsăud County, Organized After The Accession Of King Carol II

The elections organized in 1931 represent the first electoral events after the ascension to the throne of King Carol II. The weak authority of the regency meant that the restoration was done without any major opposition from the citizens, who, on the contrary, welcomed the event. In Năsăud county, Carol’s arrival and proclamation as king was received with great enthusiasm by the population and the authorities.

After the resignation of the P.N.Ţ government, the King tasked N. Iorga to form a government of national union. This government was, in fact, the first technocratic government in Romanian history. The national union was also organized in Năsăud county, where it had a joint list with the liberals and campaigned against P. N. Ţ. By appointing this government, the King wanted to show the parties that a government can be made outside of the parties.

After the June 1931 general elections in Năsăud county, the National Union obtained the two senatorial mandates and one deputy mandate, the People’s Party received one deputy mandate, and the other deputy mandate went to P.N.Ţ.The Iorga government was actually an attempt by King Carol II to govern outside of the parties and over the parties, an experiment that ultimately was a failure, the following governments belonging to the parties.
