Electoral system

A new electoral law was passed prior to the election, replacing the system in which 35 members of the Assembly were elected by proportional representation at the national level and 85 elected in single member constituencies.[2] In the new system, the country was divided into six constituencies that elected 20 members each by proportional representation.[3] Seats were allocated using the d'Hondt method with an electoral threshold of 5%.[3]
