Parliamentary elections are due to be held in Kyrgyzstan in 2025.[1]
Electoral system
Out of the 90 seats in the Supreme Council 54 will be elected by proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency, and 36 in single-seat districts.[2] To win seats, parties must pass a national electoral threshold of 5% of the votes cast (down from 7% in the October 2020 elections),[3] and receive at least 0.5% of the vote in each of the seven regions.[4] The lists are open, with voters able to cast a single preferential vote. No one party is allowed to be given more than half of the proportional seats.[5][6] 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.[6][7]
