1) less than 7 percent of the votes of those who took part in the election in the whole Republic;

2) Less than 0.7 per cent of the votes of those who took part in the election for each province, and for the cities of Bishkek and Osh.

This sum of votes is divided by 120 i.e. the number of deputy mandates distributed in a single precinct. The result obtained is the first electoral quotient (quota for receiving one mandate).

Then the number of votes received by each list of candidates participating in the distribution of deputy mandates is divided by the first electoral quotient. The quotient of the obtained figure shall be the number of deputy mandates to be received by the respective list of candidates.

In the event that actions carried out according to the second paragraph of this Part, part of mandates remains undistributed, their secondary distribution shall be made. Undistributed mandates shall be by one transferred to one list of candidates who have the largest fractional part (balance) of the number resulting from the division, made according to the second paragraph of this Part.

If the number of votes is equal, the preference shall be given to the list of candidates registered earlier.

In this case, the Central Electoral Commission calls repeated elections for this precinct.
