The Chief Minister is appointed after a general election on nomination by the House of Keys.

The Manx Labour Party ran three candidates,[5] Liberal Vannin ran four,[5] and the Isle of Man Green Party ran two.[5] The 2021 election was the first election in which the Green Party fielded candidates, having previously only stood in local elections.[7]
