General elections were held in Libya on 7 January 1956 to elect the members of the House of Representatives, the lower house of Parliament.[1]
The House of Representatives had 55 seats, one for every 20,000 inhabitants.[2] Following the 1952 elections, political parties and political gatherings had been banned, so all candidates contested the election as independents. As a result, voting was based largely on personality, clan ties, and nepotism.[3] Thirty candidates were elected unopposed.[2]
