Island council elections were held in the Netherlands Antilles in 1967. They were the fifth elections for the Island Council.[1]
Aruba edit
Two parties already present in the Council retained representation in the Island Council: the Aruban People's Party (AVP) and the Aruban Patriotic Party (PPA). In addition, the Aruba National Union (UNA) formed a combined list with the Independent Aruban Party (PIA) and Revolutionary Workers' Party (PRO) under the abbreviation UNA-P.P.
