2021 Liechtenstein general election

General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 7 February 2021 to elect the 25 members of the Landtag.[1][2] The Patriotic Union (VU) and Progressive Citizens' Party (FBP) both won ten seats, with the VU receiving only 23 votes more than the FBP. The Independents, which finished third in the 2017 elections but then suffered a split in 2018 when three of its five MPs broke away to form Democrats for Liechtenstein (DpL), failed to win a seat, while DpL won two. The Free List retained its three seats, becoming the third-largest party in the Landtag.
