Parliamentary elections are held to determine which candidates will represent the people in the government. To be (1 p.) for candidacy, one must meet certain requirements such as age, citizenship, and residency. On election day, voters receive a (1 p.) paper listing all the candidates running for office. They then proceed to a (1 p.) station where they cast their vote in a (1 p.) vote. The voter marks their preferred candidate on the ballot paper and places it in a (1 p.) box.

There are two types of voting methods: (1 p.) vote and secret vote. In an (1 p.) vote, voters indicate their choice by (1 p.) of hands or by calling out their preferred candidate’s name. In contrast, a secret vote is conducted in private and no one can see the voters’ choice.

If someone is unable to vote in person, they may cast their vote by (1 p.) , i.e. they can authorize someone else to vote on their behalf.
The number of people who actually vote is called the (1 p.) . If it is high, it means that many people have exercised their right to vote. If it is low, it means that many people have chosen not to participate.

Once the votes have been counted, the candidate with the most votes is declared the winner. The results of parliamentary elections are (1 p.) on all parties involved and everyone is (1 p.) by them.
