Local elections were held in Portugal on 29 September 2013. The elections consisted of three types of elections in the 308 Portuguese municipalities, namely the elections for the Municipal Chambers, the elections for the Municipal Assemblies, as well as the elections for the lower-level Parish Assemblies, whose winners are elected parish presidents. The latter were held separately in the more than 3,000 parishes around the country. The number of parishes had been reduced by over 1,000 due to a local government reform undertaken by the Pedro Passos Coelho's government.
The process of submitting candidacies for these elections was marked by differences in the interpretation of the electoral law. The law prohibited a candidate, after having served for three terms, to run again for Mayor, Municipal Assemblies or Parish Assemblies. However, the law did not explicitly state whether it prohibited reelection only for the same municipality or parish, or for the same office in any municipality or parish. Candidates affected by this issue included Luís Filipe Menezes (PSD), running in Porto, and Fernando Seara (PSD/CDS–PP), who was standing in Lisbon.
This controversy ended on 5 September 2013 with the decision by Constitutional Court, which allowed mayoral candidates who had already served three consecutive terms to run for election in a different municipality.http://www.publico.pt/politica/noticia/tribunal-constitucional-da-luz-verde-a-candidatura-de-luis-filipe-menezes-ao-porto-1605029 Tribunal Constitucional dá luz verde aos candidatos autárquicos com três mandatos Público 5 September 2013 8 September 2013 Público pt With the term limit law, 52 percent of incumbent mayors, 160 to be precise, were barred from running for another term.Limitação de mandatos autárquicos renovou poder local em 2013 https://www.rtp.pt/noticias/pais/limitacao-de-mandatos-autarquicos-renovou-poder-local-em-2013_n1004882 www.rtp.pt/ RTP 30 May 2017 16 July 2023 pt
The Socialist Party (PS) won the largest number of mayors in its history, surpassing its previous best result, achieved just four years earlier. It also won the largest number of mayorships of any party in the history of Portugal till that date.New relationship of trust between Portuguese people and PS, says Seguro. Expresso (in Portuguese.) Retrieved 30 September 2013. The PS also reconquered Coimbra and won in two large strongholds of the Social Democratic Party, Vila Real and Funchal. The Social Democratic Party (PSD) was the biggest loser of these elections, since it lost almost a third of the municipalities it controlled. However, the PSD did gain some traditionally Socialist bastions like Braga and Guarda.
The Democratic Unity Coalition increased its number of municipal chambers as well as its number of councilors by winning several chambers previously held by the Socialists, including winning back their historical stronghold of Loures. However, despite increasing their overall number of mayors, they also lost three chambers they won in 2009 to the Socialists; Chamusca, Crato, and Nisa. In Chamusca they had held the mayorship since 1979. The election was also marked by the strong performances of various independent groups, which won several cities. The most significant was the victory of independent Rui Moreira in Porto, who was supported by CDS–PP.
The CDS – People's Party broke its cycle of decline in municipal elections and won in five municipalities, four more than in 2009. On the other hand, the Left Bloc suffered a heavy defeat, losing their only city and electing fewer councilors than in 2009.
The turnout in these elections was the lowest ever, with 52.6 percent of voters casting their ballot.
Background
Electoral system
All 308 municipalities are allocated a certain number of councilors to elect corresponding to the number of registered voters in a given municipality. Each party or coalition must present a list of candidates. The winner of the most voted list for the municipal council is automatically elected mayor, similar to first-past-the-post (FPTP). The lists are closed and the seats in each municipality are apportioned according to the D'Hondt method. Unlike in national legislative elections, independent lists are allowed to run.Eleição dos titulares dos órgãos das autarquias locais. Diário da República (in Portuguese.) Retrieved 17 July 2025.
By-elections (2009–2013)
During the normal four-year term of local governments, sixteen parishes held a by-election for parish assemblies. No municipal council by-elections were held.Comissão Nacional de Eleições Eleições / Referendos https://www.cne.pt/content/eleicoes-referendos 10 March 2026 pt
