1920 Bulgarian parliamentary election

Parliamentary elections were held in Bulgaria on 28 March 1920 to elect members of the XIX Ordinary National Assembly. It was compulsory to vote. The result was a victory for the ruling Bulgarian Agrarian National Union (BZNS), which won 110 of the 229 seats. Voter turnout was 77%.

Aftermath
The BZNS government annulled the election of 13 deputies – nine of them Communists – which gave them a majority in parliament. In September 1922 Interior minister Rayko Daskalov proposed an electoral reform that would make the results proportional in each administrative municipality, as opposed to province, which would result in a larger majority for the more consolidated BZNS. The government resigned and snap elections were called shortly after the law was approved in late February 1923. ==Notes==
