Electoral system

Proportional representation with a national list

In Albania, the parliament, known as the Kuvendi, is elected through proportional representation. Following a reform, there is now a single national list through which all mandates are distributed. This aims to make the system simpler and more transparent.

Threshold of one percent

Parties must achieve at least one percent to gain seats. This is a low barrier that gives smaller parties a chance. However, larger parties and coalitions usually dominate.

President with a limited role

The president is elected by the parliament and primarily has representative duties. Political power lies with the government and the prime minister, who depend on the confidence of the parliament.
Direct Election Members are elected directly by the people.
Party List Vote Voters choose between party lists instead of individuals.
Proportional System Seats are distributed in proportion to votes received.
One Round The election is decided in a single round of voting.
Partly Free Elections take place but with major restrictions.
