On 17 August 1928, all over Albania, two-month elections were held for the Constitutional Assembly. Voters (men only) chose the so-called second voters, who voted in favor of the 57 constituents of the Constitutional Assembly, most of whom supported Ahmet Zogu, President of the Republic of Albania. The democratic opposition, which existed until 1924, was completely liquidated.
