The '''1973 Besmenian presidential election''' took place on 11 March 1973 in [[Besmenia]]. The 11th Besmenian presidential election, which originally would have taken place in April 1976, had to be presented three years earlier due to the sudden death of President [[Thomas Albrecht]] in January 1973.
The BVP nominated the [[Summingia]]n Govenor [[Kurt Weimer]]. The SDU nominated the former [[Federal Ministry for Finance (Besmenia)|Federal Minister for Finance]] [[Uwe Lögermann]]. [[Erwin Pohl]], who served as [[Federal Ministry for Foreign Affairs (Besmenia)|Federal Foreign Minister]] from 1964 to 1972, ran as an independent candidate. Pohl won the election with 56.3%. He served as president until 1985.
This was the last presidential election in Besmenia where the voting age was 20. On January 1, 1974, the voting age was lowered to 18.
==Electoral system==
The [[President of Besmenia]] is directly elected by the population once every six years. The election is held under a two-round system; if no candidate receives more than 50% of votes cast in the first round, then a second ballot occurs in which only those two candidates who received the greatest number of votes in the first round may stand.
