General elections were held in Luxembourg on 7 June 1964.[1] Despite receiving fewer votes than the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party (LSAP), the Christian Social People's Party (CSV) remained the largest party, winning 22 of the 56 seats in the Chamber of Deputies.[2] Following the elections, the Werner-Cravatte Government was formed, a coalition between the CSV and the LSAP. Pierre Werner remained Prime Minister, and Henry Cravatte became his Deputy Prime Minister. This put an end to the previous government, a CSV–Democratic coalition, the Werner-Schaus Ministry.
