“The September 2022 amendments of the electoral law established a new electoral system for electing the parliament, with 161 single candidate electoral districts, 151 in-country and 10 abroad. If no candidate achieves over 50 percent in the first round, the race is decided in a second round between the top two vote-getters two weeks after the announcement of final results.”
