ZESN - Promoting Democratic Elections in Zimbabwe
Proportional Representation
The proportional representation
system was first introduced in the
2013 harmonised elections. Six
senators are elected for each of the
10 provinces based on the
proportion of seats that each party
would have garnered in the
National Assembly election in that
province. Table 14 shows the
number of proportional
representation seats per each
party:
