Belgian Congo general election, 1960
General elections were held in the Belgian Congo on 22 May 1960, in order to create a government to rule the country following independence, scheduled for 30 June. The 137-seat Chamber of Representatives was elected by men over the age of 21. The seats were filled by district-based lists, although only two parties, the Mouvement National Congolais-Lumumba and the National Party of Progress, submitted lists in more than one district. Following the election, an 84-seat Senate was elected by District Assembly members, and the two chambers elected a president (Joseph Kasa-Vubu of ABAKO) together.
