Elected from a single-mandate electoral district


A candidate elected from a single-mandate electoral district is considered to be the registered candidate who received the highest number of votes compared to other registered candidates in that single-mandate electoral district. In case of an equal number of votes received by registered candidates, the candidate who was registered earlier1 is considered elected.
