Full general elections were held in Belgium on 14 October 1894, with run-off elections held on 21 October 1894. The elections followed several major reforms: they were the first held under universal male suffrage for those over the age of 25. This followed the abolition of tax qualifications, and increased the number of voters tenfold. Voting was also made compulsory. Provincial senators were introduced in addition to the existing directly elected ones.

  • Les élections législatives de 1894 ont eu lieu le 14 octobre. Il s'agit des premières élections où le scrutin était universel masculin. Toutefois, ce mode de scrutin universel était tempéré par un système plural, c'est-à-dire qu'une certaine frange de la population avait droit à plusieurs votes selon la situation sociale. (fr)

  • Algemene parlementsverkiezingen vonden plaats in België op zondag 14 oktober 1894, met een tweede ronde op 21 oktober 1894. Het waren de eerste verkiezingen met algemeen meervoudig stemrecht (en opkomstplicht) voor mannen ouder dan 25. Het aantal kiezers vertienvoudigde hierdoor. Bijgevolg geraakte de Belgische Werkliedenpartij (de socialisten) voor de eerste keer in het parlement. De liberalen daarentegen verloren een groot deel van hun zetels. De socialisten hadden minder stemmen dan de liberalen maar toch meer zetels, doordat hun aanhang zich concentreerde in Waalse industriegebieden. De katholieken wonnen alle zetels in heel Vlaanderen, in Brussel en in zeven landelijke Waalse arrondissementen. (nl)
