Constituency Seat Simulator

Draw your own electoral map: edit the parties, enter votes constituency by constituency, and watch the 395 seats fall. The method and the law behind it are stated below.

Quotient électoral : Q = I / S  where I = registered voters in the constituency and S = its seats. Each list takes floor(votes / Q) seats; the seats left over go to the largest remainders (plus fort reste). Majority = 198. This page divides the votes you enter by the constituency's seats — a stand-in for the register. The real count runs constituency by constituency: 305 local seats in 75 map units and 90 regional seats in the twelve regions, with no electoral threshold.

1. Parties — add, rename, recolour, remove

The registry ships 60 parties (the Others row is the catch-all: in 2021 it gathers the micro-lists (AFG, NEO, PEDD, PML, PVM, PUD and others) that are not separate rows in data/parties.csv; MDS, FFD, CNI and PSU now have their own rows). Add any other party, remove the ones you do not want to field (a removed party simply does not take seats), and set each party's national vote share. Everything below recomputes as you type.

2. Constituency map — 305 local seats

Each shape is a province or prefecture: the local constituency (where a prefecture is split into several seats in law, their seats are shown together). Click a shape to edit its votes and zoom in; drag to pan, scroll to zoom. By default the national shares above are applied uniformly everywhere — use Scatter the map or edit a constituency to build a geographic scenario.

توزع المقاعد على اللوائح بواسطة قاسم انتخابي يستخرج عن طريق قسمة عدد الناخبين المقيدين في الدائرة الانتخابية المعنية على عدد المقاعد المخصصة لها. وتوزع المقاعد الباقية حسب قاعدة أكبر البقايا، وذلك بتخصيصها للوائح التي تتوفر على الأرقام القريبة من القاسم المذكور.

Seats are allocated to the lists by means of an electoral quotient obtained by dividing the number of registered voters in the constituency concerned by the number of seats allocated to it. The remaining seats are allocated on the basis of the largest remainders, by assigning them to the lists whose numbers are closest to the said quotient.

The quotient is based on registered voters, not votes cast; Article 85 applies the same method to the regional constituencies.
