Elections in Mauritius gives information on elections and election results in Mauritius. Since 1967, Mauritius has experienced 11 free and fair democratic general elections to choose a government. The government is formed by the party or group which controls a majority on the unicameral legislature. The National Assembly has 70 members, 62 elected for a four-year term in 21 multi-member constituencies and 8 additional "best loser" members appointed by the Supreme Court. The president and vice-present is then elected by the National Assembly for a five-year term by the parliament. On a regional level, the country has village & district council, and municipal elections every 6 years. Mauritius has a multi-party system which is mainly dominated by three parties namely Militant Socialist Movement (MSM), the Labour Party and Mauritian Militant Movement (MMM). Out of the 11 national elections, the MSM has won 5 (1983, 1987, 1991, 2000 and 2014), the Labour Party won 4 (1967, 1995, 2005 and 2010) and the MMM won 2 (1976 and 1982). ==Introduction== * The government is formed by the largest party/group alliance in the National Assembly. * The leader of the single party winning the highest number of seats becomes the Prime Minister and leads the government. * The Leader of the second largest party in the house (unless it is in alliance with the majority party) becomes the Leader of the Opposition. * The Prime Minister is the denominator to determine which party actually forms the government while the other parties (in case of an alliance) are considered as being in the government till they support the majority party. They can be normally revoked at any time by the Prime Minister as members of the government. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elections in Mauritius」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
