General elections for the Legislative Council were held in Zanzibar for the first time in July 1957. It was largely a contest between the Afro-Shirazi Party and the Zanzibar Nationalist Party, with the ASP winning five of the six contested seats.〔(Zanzibar: 1957 Election ) EISA〕 They were also the first elections to be held in East Africa.〔(Zanzibar: Elections background ) EISA〕 ==Background== In 1926 the British colonial authorities introduced Legislative and Executive Councils to the islands, preventing the Sultan from issuing legislation without their consent.〔 In 1954 the number of members of the Council was expanded to 12. Two years later the British authorities appointed Walter Coutts to advise the government on how to obtain public representation on the Council, albeit as "unofficial" members.〔 Coutts' report suggested election of six members based on a list system, with candidates limited to property owners, people over 40, and those with a specific level of education, and that voters should meet the property criteria. This proposal meant that only 14% of the islands' population were eligible to vote.〔
