Map coverage, vote definitions & attribution

Colours show first-preference party totals, not seats won. STV transfers and elected-member rosters are not included in this layer.

These local votes are separate from the IPU national seat archive. Shares use the sum of source-listed party votes, not registered voters. First-preference, list and candidate ballots are distinct. Names and counts are preserved from the published compilation.

0 of 13 reporting units have source-matched displayable boundaries. Non-geographic ballots, unmatched units and excluded overseas geography remain selectable. A missing boundary never becomes a zero vote or fabricated polygon.

Party colours are preserved from source identity records. Ties, independents and unverified identities use neutral grey. Text abbreviations are not official logos. Display simplification does not create legal boundary documents.

SEATS WON AT THIS ELECTION

Parties & coalitions.

2 source-listed groups

Neutral chart colours compare seat counts; they do not represent official party colours.

Party / electoral coalitionSeats wonShare of seats
Labour Party (LP)Elected: 36 · Gender mechanism: 64253.2%
Nationalist Party (PN)Elected: 31 · Gender mechanism: 63746.8%

Largest party means most seats in this table; it is not a declaration of who formed the government. Coalitions remain grouped as published.

This national seat summary does not include constituency-level results or a riding map. Electoral boundary verification remains pending for this election.

Chambers, official links & source information

Election figures are dated snapshots. Statutory chamber membership and the current electoral-system description come from the chamber profile; they may differ from seats contested at an earlier election. A largest-party result does not establish the governing coalition.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PARTIES

Party leadership.

4 source-reported records

Each leadership record carries its own date and source. Undated records are not verified for the election date. These names do not identify every constituency candidate or establish who governs; member-party leaders are not automatically a coalition’s joint leaders.
