Status: Repealed

The Municipal Corporation (Elections) Act 1869 (32 & 33 Vict. c. 55), sometimes called the Municipal Franchise Act 1869[4] or the Municipal Corporation (Election) Act 1869,[5] was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.

The Bill for this Act was the Municipal Franchise Bill.[6] Bill 85 was introduced by John Tomlinson Hibbert.[7]

Unmarried women ratepayers received the right to vote in local government elections in the Municipal Franchise Act 1869.[8] This right was confirmed in the Local Government Act 1894 (56 & 57 Vict. c. 73) and extended to include some married women.[9][10][11][12] By 1900, more than 1 million women were registered to vote in local government elections in England.[9]

Sections 6 and 7 were repealed by section 12 of, and the Second Schedule to, the Municipal Elections Act 1875.[13]
