Electoral system

The 120 seats in the Supreme Council are elected by proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency. To win seats, parties must pass a national electoral threshold of 9%, up from 7% in the previous elections,[2] and receive at least 0.7% of the vote in each of the seven regions.[3] No one party is allowed to hold more than 65 seats.[4] Party lists are required to have at least 30% of the candidates from each gender, and every fourth candidate had to be of a different gender. Each list is also required to have at least 15% of the candidates being from ethnic minorities and 15% of under 35 years old, as well as at least two candidates with disabilities.[4][5]
