Control of regional administrations after the election UPR-led government
Background
Election system
Regional councils in Mauritania are elected using the proportional representation system of the largest remainder method with two rounds . In the first round, voters choose from one of several lists running. If one list obtains an absolute majority of votes, the council seats would be then distributed proportionally. If not, a second round must be held between the two largest lists. The president of the Regional Council is elected by the Regional Council from one of their members.[citation needed
