1924 Dominican general election

General elections were held in Dominica in 1924 following the reintroduction of elected members to the Legislative Council for the first time since 1898. The Representative Government Association won a third of the elected seats.[1]

The reformed Legislative Council had 13 members, with the Administrator as President, six 'official' members (civil servants), four elected members and two appointed members. Candidacy for the elected seats was limited to people with an annual income of at least £200 or owning property valued at £500 or more.[2]
