Electoral system

Of the 86 seats in the House of Representatives, 8 were elected in single-member constituencies using the two-round system.

The other 78 were elected using two-round plurality block voting in 35 constituencies from 2 to 7 seats. To be elected in the first round, a candidate had to reach an electoral threshold of 50% of the number of valid votes cast, divided by the number of seats up for election in the district.
