General elections were held in Rhodesia on 7 May 1965. The election was held using two rolls an A roll which was largely white (around 90000 whites and 2256 blacks) and elected 50 seats and a B roll which was largely black and elected 15 seats. Only 10544 voters were registered on the B roll. The ruling Rhodesian Front won all 50 A roll seats whilst the National People’s Party won 10 of the B roll seats.Later in the year the government made a Unilateral Declaration of Independence.
