About the election
Short description of the context and results of the election.
View field in the data dictionary -
The Democracy and Freedom coalition, including the Christian Democratic Party of San Marino (PDCS) and the Reformist Alliance (AR), won 26 seats in the 60-member Great and General Council. The rival coalition, comprising Free (Libera) – Socialist Party (PS) and the Party of Socialists and Democrats (PSD), won 18 seats. On 26 June, the two coalitions announced that they would form a coalition government. On 2 July, the newly elected Great and General Council held its first session.
The snap elections in 2024 followed the appointment of the Heads of State (Capitani Regenti, who are also the Speakers of the Great and General Council) in March 2024. In a rare event in San Marino, candidates initially proposed for the posts were not elected. On 19 March, 55 members of the Great and General Council announced their resignation, which effectively dissolved the outgoing legislature. On 20 March, the Heads of State decreed the dissolution of the parliament and called early elections for 9 June.
