2005 Luxembourg communal elections

Last updated

The 2005 Luxembourgish communal elections were held on 9 October 2005. Elections are held every six years across all of Luxembourg's then-118 communes.

Results

Seven lists ran in more than one commune: the Christian Social People's Party (CSV), the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party (LSAP), the Democratic Party (DP), the Greens, the Alternative Democratic Reform Party (ADR), the Left, and the Communist Party of Luxembourg (KPL). Of these, the six former parties won seats, as did four local parties that ran in only one commune each.

In the chart below, '-' represents that the party did not run in that commune, whereas '0' represents that the party did run, but won no council seats. Grey denotes the mayor's party. Results for communes using proportional representation only. The party system does not apply in the majoritarian communes, making comparisons difficult.

The 1986 United States Senate elections were elections for the United States Senate.

Panachage is the name given to a procedure provided for in several open-list variants of the party-list proportional representation system. It gives voters more than one vote in the same ballot and allows them to distribute their votes between or among individual candidates from different party lists. Seats are allocated to parties based on party vote share, with the seats of a party going to the most-popular candidate(s) of that party. It is therefore a mixture of proportional representation at the party level with primary elections at the individual candidate level being held by plurality block voting.
