Determination and official publication of elections results


1. The CEC shall count the votes cast for each list of candidates in the single election constituency on the basis of the protocols of PECs. The count shall be performed by summing up the data of the protocols.


2. Political parties, whose lists of candidates obtained the number of votes provided below, shall be excluded from allocation of seats:


- less than 7 percent of votes nationwide;
- less than 0.7 percent of votes in each oblast, Bishkek and Osh.


Political parties, whose lists of candidates obtained 7 (seven) and more percent of votes over the republic; shall obtain deputy mandates; the number of mandates shall be determined based on the methodology provided for in item 3 of the Article.


3. The CEC shall count the number of votes cast by voters in the single election constituency for the lists of candidates of political parties, which obtained 7 and more percent of votes over the republic and which obtained 0.7 and more per cent of votes in each oblast, Bishkek and Osh. This sum of the votes shall be divided by 120 – the number of deputies mandates distributed in the single election constituency. The obtained result shall be the first electoral quotient (a quota for obtaining one mandate).


Then the number of votes obtained by each list of candidates participating in the distribution of deputies’ mandates shall be divided by the first electoral quotient. The integral part of the number obtained as a result of division shall be the number of deputies’ mandates which shall be obtained by the corresponding list of candidates.


If there are undistributed mandates after all the actions undertaken in line with the second paragraph of this item, the second distribution shall be undertaken. Undistributed mandates shall be transferred one by one to those lists of candidates, which get the biggest fractional part (remainder) of the number obtained as a result of division in line with the second paragraph of this item. In the event of equality of fractional parts, preference shall be given to the list of candidates for which the majority of votes was cast. In the event of equal number of votes, preference shall be given to the list of candidates, which was registered earlier.

1) names of political parties admitted to distribution of deputies’ mandates;
2) second name, first name and patronymic of the elected deputies from each list of candidates.


7. The CEC shall acknowledge that all deputies’ mandates in the single election constituency remain undistributed, if all political parties are excluded from distribution of deputies’ mandates in line with item two of this Article. In this case, the CEC shall call repeat election over the single election constituency.


8. The CEC shall get Jogorku Kenesh deputies’ election results officially published within the two-week period following the day on which elections results were determined.
