2019 Latvian presidential election

Roniee: Voting system




Indirect '''presidential elections''' are held in [[Latvia]] on 29 may 2019.<ref>http://bit.ly/2HG2zUW>

==Voting system==
Before the first round of the presidential election, the political parties represented in the [[Saeima]] nominate their candidate.

The president is elected in the first round if he receives the absolute majority of the deputies, ie 51 votes out of 100.

In case of failure, a second round is organized with the same candidates and under the same conditions. If no one is elected, the two candidates who come first are qualified for a third round, and the one who receives 51 votes becomes [[President of Latvia]]. The president of the Saeima chairs the electoral college.

In case of failure, the procedure is restarted.
