General elections were scheduled to be held in Bahrain in November 2026.[1] However, in April 2026 the term of the incumbent Council of Representatives was extended until December 2027.[2]
Electoral system
The 40 members of the Council of Representatives are elected from single-member constituencies using the two-round system; if no candidate receives a majority of the vote in the first round, a second round is held.[3]
Under the 2002 constitution, the council is the lower house of parliament, which examines and passes legislation proposed by the king of Bahrain and the king's appointed cabinet; the upper chamber, the Consultative Council, is appointed by the king and can block legislation passed by the lower house.[4]
