Parliamentary elections were held inHungary on 25 and 26 January 1920.^[1] However, they were only held in 164 districts.^[2] After theTreaty of Trianon was signed, the 44 districts previously occupied byRomania voted between 13 June and 5 July, whilst the 11 districts occupied bySerbia did not vote until 30 and 31 October 1921.^[3] The election was held withcompulsory voting. In protest at this and other changes to the franchise that left 60% of the voting age population unable to vote, theHungarian Social Democratic Party boycotted the elections,^[4] and called for its supporters to cast invalid votes, resulting in an unusually high number of blank or invalid votes – 12% in the January elections and over 20% inBudapest and other major cities.^[1]

TheNational Smallholders and Agricultural Labourers Party and theChristian National Union Party won 194 of the 219 seats and formed a coalition government on 15 March.^[5] However, it lasted only until 4 June when the Treaty of Trianon was signed.^[5]
