Electoral system
The 150 members of the unicameral Parliament were elected by two methods: 77 by proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency with an electoral threshold of 5%, and 73 by a two-round system in single-member constituencies with majority rule, requiring the winner to get over 50% (in the previous election the first-placed candidate had to pass a 30% threshold to win a constituency seat).
The boundaries of the constituencies were re-drawn to reduce malapportionment. Previously, the size of electorates ranged from fewer than 6,000 voters in one district to over 150,000 voters in another.Elections Guide Civil.ge
The elections did not take place in constituencies in the breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
