{{Politics of Cameroon}}Parliamentary elections were held in Cameroon on 10 April 1960. They were the first elections held in accordance with the new constitution, approved in a referendum in February, which created a unicameral federal National Assembly. The result was a slim victory for the Cameroonian Union,[1] forcing it to govern in coalition. However, the election was marred by severe irregularities.[2] Voter turnout was 69.5%.[3]ResultsParty | Votes | % | Seats | +/– | Cameroonian Union | 606,000 | 44.9 | 51 | +21 | Union of the Peoples of Cameroon | 151,379 | 11.2 | 8 | New | People's Front for Unity and Peace | 145,752 | 10.8 | 19 | New | Cameroonian Party of Democrats | 139,780 | 10.4 | 12 | –8 | Group of Cameroonian Progressives | 60,686 | 4.5 | 7 | –1 | Other parties | 233,789 | 17.3 | 0 | – | Independents | 11,853 | 0.9 | 3 | New | Total | 1,349,239 | 100 | 100 | +30 | Registered voters/turnout | 1,940,438 | – | – | Source: Nohlen et al. |
