Parliamentary elections are scheduled to be held in Ivory Coast on 27 December 2025.[1][2]

Electoral system

[edit]

The 255 members of the National Assembly are elected from 169 single-member constituencies and 36 multi-member constituencies with between two and six seats.[3][4] In single-member constituencies voters cast a vote for one candidate who is elected by first-past-the-post voting, while in multi-member constituencies candidates were elected by plurality-at-large voting, where voters cast a single vote for a closed list, with the list receiving the most votes winning all seats in the constituency.[5]

Campaign

[edit]

The opposition PDCI-RDA accused supporters of the ruling RHDP of fraudulently gathering voter names, phone numbers, voter card details, and polling station information in exchange for cash payments of up to 300,000 CFA francs and the distribution of motorcycles as part of efforts to influence the election result. It also noted the disappearance of more than 25,000 voter cards in Port-Bouët.[6]
