By-elections shall be called by the President of the Republic no later than fifteen days after the National Assembly's determination of the termination of the mandate.

Alternate elections are held in the electoral unit in which the member of parliament whose term of office has expired was elected.

In the by-election, the candidate who received the most votes is elected.

If two or more deputies are elected in the by-election in the electoral unit, the vote is based on the list of candidates. A voter can vote for a maximum of as many candidates as there are deputies to be elected in the by-election in the constituency. The candidates who received the most votes are elected.

Alternate elections are held in accordance with the provisions of this law, which apply to general elections, unless otherwise specified in this article.
