The elections for the 9th Convocation of the Parliament of Georgia took place on 8 and 30 October 2016, and were convincingly won by ruling Georgian Dream which secured a constitutional majority. The party received 48.7% of the proportional vote, winning 115 out of 150 seats after sweeping 71 of the 73 single-mandate constituencies. Only three parties managed to pass the 5% threshold. The turnout in the first round was 55.9%, a 4% decline compared to 2012. The elections were not held in occupied Abkhazia and South Ossetia / Tskhinvali Region, in lack of Georgian control over the regions.
Electoral system
The elections were held with a mixed electoral system. A proportional party-list vote with a 5% threshold elected 77 of the 150 MPs and 73 MPs were elected through single mandate majoritarian constituencies with a 50% threshold for the winner. Second round run-offs were held on 30 October 2016 between the two best performing candidates in majoritarian districts where candidates failed to clear the 50% bar.1Civil Georgia, Elections Guide, 3 Oct 2016.
Prior to the elections, changes were made to the electoral system. For single mandate majoritarian districts, the threshold to win the district was raised from 30% to 50%. Also, the districts were resized, after a ruling by the Constitutional Court. The court argued the discrepancy in size between the constituencies, ranging from 5,800 to 163,000 voters in the 2012 elections, undermined voting equality. The OSCE election monitoring missions repeatedly made by this point as well. Henceforth the districts were resized around an average of 48,000 voters with a bandwidth between 42,000 and 55,000 voters. Due to the change, capital Tbilisi was divided in 22 districts, compared to 10 at previous elections. The main cities Batumi, Kutaisi and Rustavi were also split in multiple districts. In sparsely populated regions districts were merged. Only eight districts remained unchanged (see Appendix 3 for details).
Calls from the opposition and civil society to move to a fully proportional system were ignored by the ruling Georgian Dream. The party said it wanted to settle this for the 2020 elections (which it didn’t). A total of 3,513,884 voters were registered. There were 4,816 voters abroad. Also, polling took place in the Georgian peacekeeping bases of Bagram and Mazar-i-Sharif in Afghanistan. Here 1,471 and 150 voters were registered respectively.
Parties and candidates
Initially, 64 parties and electoral blocs registered at the Central Election Commission for participation in the elections, of which ultimately 35 parties participated in 25 electoral lists (16 parties formed 6 electoral blocs). The other 29 parties were denied participation for a variety of reasons. A total of 3,524 candidates were electable on party-lists, of which 37% were female. A total of 816 candidates took part in the 73 single-mandate races, among them were 143 female and 53 independents.2CESKO, Report On The Parliamentary Elections of Georgia 2016 (pdf), page 9-103Civil Georgia, List of Majoritarian MP Candidates, 1 Oct 2016. Georgian Dream and United National Movement had candidates in 72 out of 73 constituencies. GD supported the nominally independent Salome Zourabishvili in the Tbilisi Mtsatsminda district. UNM lacked a candidate in district 38 that united the municipalities of Dusheti, Kazbegi and Tianeti.
The Georgian Dream party ran 155 candidates for the proportional vote. Their list contained candidates of the Conservative Party (4), the Social Democrats for Georgia’s Development (3), the Green Party (1) and various candidates without a party membership (12).4CESKO, Party list “Georgian Dream – Democratic Georgia” (pdf), 29 September 2016 UNM had 199 candidates, five of which were from European Georgia and 22 had no party membership.5CESKO, Party list election bloc “United National Movement“ (pdf), 29 September 2016
Results
The elections were won by the ruling Georgian Dream party, which expanded its majority in parliament with 30 seats to 115, enough for a constitutional majority. The victory was carried by a sweep of the single mandate constituencies, winning 71 out of the 73 districts. Virtually all Georgian Dream coalition partners from the previous government didn’t return to parliament, as they didn’t clear the 5% threshold. The Industrialists were the exception, winning one single mandate district in the second round against a candidate of Georgian Dream.
Georgian Dream received 48.7% of the proportional vote, 6.3% lower than in 2012, taking 44 of the 77 proportional seats. Its main competitor, the United National Movement (UNM) of former president Mikheil Saakashvili, received 27.1% of votes, a loss of more than 13%, resulting in 27 seats. The only other party to pass the 5% electoral threshold (narrowly) was the nativist and pro-Russian Alliance of Patriots of Georgia, entering parliament for the first time with 6 seats. In total, 19% of the proportional votes were on parties which didn’t clear the threshold and were virtually lost as they remained unrepresented in parliament.

Turnout
The national turnout was 51.9%, which was nearly 10% lower than the 2012 election. Per electoral district the turnout varied between 38% and 66% (see Appendix 3). In half of the districts the turnout was within a 5% bandwidth from the average, representing half of the votes. In the four main cities, the turnout was lower than 50%. In capital Tbilisi, with 27% of the electorate, the turnout was 49.95%, while in Kutaisi the turnout was among the lowest in the country at 42.7%. Overall, the turnout was the highest in the western regions of Georgia, while in the central South it was systematically below average, specifically in the Kvemo Kartli region.
Single mandate districts
Georgian Dream won 23 out of 73 single mandate districts in the first round. For the remaining 50 districts a second round was required, which took place on 30 October 2016. In 45 of these districts, Georgian Dream and UNM candidates competed for the district win. Georgian Dream managed to win 48 of these runoffs in the second round, securing a total of 71 of the 73 majoritarian seats.
In Mtatsminda district of Tbilisi, the nominally independent Salome Zourabishvili was supported by Georgian Dream. She faced a candidate of UNM, which race she won. In Marneuli (#35) and Akhaltsikhe (#44) districts, a UNM candidate was in the lead by a large margin, but lost in the second round to a Georgian Dream candidate. In Khashuri (#43), Industrialists candidate Nozadze won the district against a Georgian Dream candidate. In Gori city (#42), the leader of the Free Democrats, former UN envoy and defense minister Irakli Alasania withdrew from the second round and retired from politics.
Former first lady Sandra Roelofs was elected in parliament through the party list of UNM, but was also a candidate in the single mandate constituency of the western city of Zugdidi. However, she withdrew from participating in the second round as she claimed the elections were rigged in the first round. After the elections she renounced her parliamentary mandate.
Nearly all runoffs were decided by a 70-80% vote in favor of the Georgian Dream candidate. The turnout was much lower than the first round (37.5%), an indication that many (UNM) opposition supporters stayed at home.12ON, Election results 2016, 6 November 201613Civil Georgia, According to the preliminary results of the second round, Georgian Dream won convincingly, 31 October 2016

3. Single-mandate constituencies
The electoral districts with the number of registered voters, actual votes and turnout. Compared to the 2012 elections the districts were redefined for a more equal size. Tbilisi was divided into 22 constituencies (from 10 in 2012), while Batumi and Kutaisi each had three and Rustavi two districts. Sparsely populated districts in the countryside were merged, mostly along the boundaries of their corresponding municipalities. Some local districts were assigned to electoral districts of neighboring municipalities, which is noted with a footnote in the table.
