Folketing elections were held in Denmark on 6 May 1915. In order to make amendments to the constitution, the government called for the dissolution of both the Folketing and the Landsting to allow a new Rigsdag to make the revisions. However, as this was during World War I, no campaigning took place,[1] and 105 of the 115 were uncontested.[2]
The corresponding Landsting election was held on 22 May.[3]
