  • The 1961 General Election in the Republic of South Africa
    THE 1961 GENERAL ELECTION IN THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA. by AN'l'HONY JOHN MC CONNACHIE submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject HISTORY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR PROF JCH GROBLER JOINT SUPERVISOR : MRS BM THERON NOVEMBER 1999. SUMMARY. On August 1, 1961, the Prime Minister, Dr HF Verwoerd, announced that a general election would be held on October 18, 1961, eighteen months prematurely. The announcement of the early election did not come as a great surprise to most of the opposition parties. Although the National Party did not greatly increase its representation in parliament, it did win nearly all its seats with increased majorities. The Progressive Party suffered a very severe reverse with the loss 0£ all but one 0£ its seats in parliament. The newly-formed National Union Party also acquitted itself very poorly in the election, winning only one parliamentary seat. The results 0£ the election helped to strengthen Verwoerd's position as leader 0£ the National Party and appeared to vindicate his decision to lead South Africa out 0£ the British Commonwealth. Key Terms South African general elections, South African politics, National Party, United Party, Progressive Party, Liberal Party, National Union Party, Dr Hendrik Verwoerd, Sir de Villiers Graaf£, The republican referendum 0£ 1960, The 1961 general election in South Africa, The 1958 general election in South Africa, Statistics concerning South African general elections. 3 24.968061 Mcco 11111111111~~11111 0001760655
