Parliamentary elections will be held in Haiti on 9 August 2015.^[1] Two-thirds of the Senate and all members of the Chamber of Deputies are up for election.

Electoral system

The 99 members of the Chamber of Deputies are elected in single-member constituencies using the two-round system; a second round will be held if no candidate wins a majority of the vote in the first round.^[2]

One-third of the 30-member Senate is elected every two years, also using the two-round system.^[3] However, the previous scheduled Senate elections in May 2012 were not held, meaning two-thirds of the seats are due for elections in 2015.^[1]
