2020 Tajik parliamentary election

Parliamentary elections were held in Tajikistan on 1 March 2020.^[1] The result was a landslide victory for the ruling People's Democratic Party, which won 47 of the 63 seats. The only opposition party, the Social Democratic Party, received just 0.3% of the vote.^[2]

The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe was critical of the election.^[2]

Electoral system

The 63 members of the Assembly of Representatives are elected by two methods: 41 members are elected in single-member constituencies using the two-round system, whilst 22 seats are elected by proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency, with an electoral threshold of 5%.^[3] Voters cast a single ballot for a candidate in their single-member constituency, with the total votes received across all constituencies used to determine the proportional seats. In each constituency, voter turnout is required to be at least 50% for the election to be declared valid.^[4]

Campaign

A total of 241 candidates contested the elections, 65 for the 22 party-list seats and 176 for the 41 constituency seats.^[5]

The Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan was unable to participate, having been banned by the authorities over terrorism allegations in 2015.^[6]
