About this election
The electoral system
Regional councillors are elected by a two-round, semi-proportional list system. Lists winning an absolute majority in the first round are elected outright; otherwise lists above 10% advance to the run-off (and those between 5% and 10% may merge with a qualifying list). In the second round the list with the most votes receives a bonus of one-quarter of the seats, with the remainder distributed proportionally among all lists above 5% — a design that guarantees the winning list a working majority in the regional council while preserving opposition representation.
