November 1946 French legislative election in Togo
(Redirected from French legislative election, November 1946 (Togo))
Elections to the French National Assembly were held in French Togoland on 10 November 1946 as part of the wider French elections. Previously, Togoland had formed a single constituency with neighbouring Dahomey, but the new 1946 constitution had separated the two territories, giving Togoland one seat in the Assembly. It was won by Martin Aku of the Committee of Togolese Unity, who received 34% of the vote.[1]
