General elections were held in Monaco on 4 February 1973, with a second round of voting on 11 February.Dieter Nohlen & Philip Stöver (2010) Elections in Europe: A data handbook, p1357 {{ISBN|978-3-8329-5609-7}} The result was a victory for the National and Democratic Union, which won 16 of the 18 seats in the National Council.
Electoral system
Voters can either choose a party list or choose candidates from various lists ("panachage") for the 18 seats. To be elected a candidate must receive a majority of valid votes. If the 18 seats are not filled in the first round, the remaining seats are elected in a second round by a simple majority.
