Historical significance
In the run-up to the election, the number of mandates in the Landtag was increased from the original 20 mandates in 1948 to 22 mandates. Compared to the first Landtag election, there were only minor shifts in the number of mandates: The two additional mandates went to the South Tyrolean People’s Party (SVP); the Italian Christian Democrats (Democrazia Cristiana) increased their mandate strength from two to three mandates at the expense of the withdrawing list Unione Indipendenti. All other parties were able to retain their mandates from 1948.
