Parliamentary elections were held on Uzbekistan on 27 October 2024 to elect members of the Legislative Chamber. [1] [2]
The 150 members of the Legislative Chamber are elected via parallel voting: half are elected in single-member constituencies via first-past-the-post voting, while the other half are elected via closed list proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency with an electoral threshold of 7% using the Hare quota. If less than one-third of eligible voters participate in an election, it will be considered invalid, and if no party crosses the electoral threshold for proportional seats, the elections for the proportional seats will be considered invalid. At least 40% of candidates must be women. [3]
Turnout surpassed the 33% threshold needed for the election to be valid. All candidates came from the country's five registered political parties, none of which are in opposition to the government of President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. [4]
Results of the election showed 64 deputies for the Movement of Entrepreneurs and Businessmen – Uzbekistan Liberal Democratic Party, 29 from the Democratic Party of Uzbekistan, 20 from the People's Democratic Party of Uzbekistan, 21 from the Social Democratic Party, and 16 from the Ecological Party of Uzbekistan.

The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe criticized the election for the lack of "a genuine choice" for voters, since all parliamentary parties are loyal to the President and opposition is suppressed. However, the organization also praised the reforms to the voting system that reserved more seats for women. [7]
The electoral threshold, or election threshold, is the minimum share of votes that a candidate or political party requires before they become entitled to representation or additional seats in a legislature.
Mixed-member proportional representation is a type of representation provided by some mixed electoral systems which combine local winner-take-all elections with a compensatory tier with party lists, in a way that produces proportional representation overall. Like proportional representation, MMP is not a single system, but a principle and goal of several similar systems. Some systems designed to achieve proportionality are still called mixed-member proportional, even if they generally fall short of full proportionality. In this case, they provide semi-proportional representation.
In political science, parallel voting or superposition refers to the use of two or more electoral systems to elect different members of a legislature. More precisely, an electoral system is a superposition if it is a mixture of at least two tiers, which do not interact with each other in any way; one part of a legislature is elected using one method, while another part is elected using a different method, with all voters participating in both. Thus, the final results can be found by calculating the results for each system separately based on the votes alone, then adding them together. A system is called fusion or majority bonus, another independent mixture of two system but without two tiers. Superposition is also not the same as "coexistence", which when different districts in the same election use different systems. Superposition, fusion and coexistence are distinct from dependent mixed electoral systems like compensatory (corrective) and conditional systems.
Regular elections in Croatia are mandated by the Constitution and legislation enacted by Parliament.
