From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1999 Monegasque municipal elections were held on 21 February to elect the 15 members of the Communal Council of Monaco.[1]

Electoral system

[edit]

Monegasque citizens over 18 were entitled to vote. The 15 councillors were elected for a four-year period in a single multi-member constituency using plurality-at-large voting with a two-round system. A majority of the votes was required to be elected. The second round would have been held one week after the first round. The Mayor of Monaco was elected by the councillors after the election. Candidates were required to be at least 21 years old and to have the Monegasque nationality for at least 5 years.[2]
