Parliamentary elections are due to be held in Cameroon in 2025.[1]

Electoral system

The 180 members of the National Assembly are elected from 58 single- and multi-member constituencies based on the departments.[2] In single-member constituencies, first-past-the-post voting is used. In multi-member constituencies, a modified form of closed list proportional representation is used, in which a party receiving over 50% of the vote in a constituency wins all the seats, but if no party receives over 50% of the vote, the party with the most votes is awarded half the seats and any other party receiving over 5% of the vote receives a proportional share of the remaining half of the seats based on the largest remainder method and Hare quota.[3]
