Paragraph 10
 
10.  In local government elections, voters elect councillors and presidents of municipal assemblies. These elections are direct elections on the basis of a secret ballot. The term of office for elected candidates is four years. Councillors are elected on the basis of lists of political parties, coalitions, other political organisations, and groups of citizens. An assembly president is elected in two rounds of voting should no candidate receive a majority in the first round of voting.
