Universal male plural voting: some electors could cast multiple votes; vote totals are not counts of individual voters. Only the designated provincial rotation was contested. Seat totals labelled Total describe the resulting composition, not all seats won at this ballot. The seat figures are seats won in this partial renewal, not the entire chamber composition.
