Note: Candidate Stübel declared himself a “liberal” and a guest (Hospitant) of the National Liberal caucus, which he formally joined in the first session of the new legislative period. Opinions differ as to whether Stöcker was a candidate of the Conservatives, the Christian Socials, the antisemitic Reformers—or all three.
