Parliamentary elections were held in Yugoslavia, with voting on 23 March 1958 for the 301-member Federal Council,[1][2] whilst the Producers' Council was elected on 30 March, with the two councils forming the bicameral Federal People's Assembly.[3]
Almost all candidates ran unopposed, with only six of the 301 seats in the Federal Council having been contested by more than one candidate.[3] Around 40% of the candidates for the Federal Council and 80% of candidates for the Producers' Council were running for the first time.[3]
