Legislative elections are the processes through which citizens vote to select representatives for their country's legislative body, such as a parliament or congress. These representatives are responsible for making laws, debating policies, and representing the interests of their constituents. The elections can occur at various levels, including national, state, and local. The methods of conducting legislative elections can vary widely, including first-past-the-post, proportional representation, and ranked-choice voting. The specific rules and procedures are often defined by each country's electoral laws, ensuring that the election process is fair and transparent.
