== Electoral system ==

=== National Council ===
The 200 members of the National Council are elected from the [[Cantons of Switzerland|26 cantons]], each of which constitutes a constituency. In all multi-member cantons [[Open list|open-list]] [[proportional representation]] is used; with apparentments for allied parties and sub-apparentments for lists within parties, where apparented lists are initially counted together for seats allocation. Seats are allocated using the [[Hagenbach-Bischoff system]] with no threshold. Voters may cross out names on party lists or write names twice, split their vote between parties (a system known as [[panachage]]), or draw up their own list on a blank ballot. The six single-member cantons use [[first-past-the-post voting]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Organisation of the National Council election |url=https://www.ch.ch/en/elections2023/how-the-elections-are-organised/national-council-elections/ |access-date=2023-01-07 |website=www.ch.ch |language=en |archive-date=2023-01-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230107202254/https://www.ch.ch/en/elections2023/how-the-elections-are-organised/national-council-elections/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

Seats in the National Council are apportioned to the cantons based on their respective population size (which includes children and resident foreigners who do not have the right to vote). Based on the official population count recorded at the end of 2020, [[Basel-Stadt]] lost a seat while [[Zürich]] gained one. Zürich is the canton with the most seats (36).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Renouvellement intégral du Conseil national en 2023 : modification de la répartition des sièges entre les cantons |url=https://www.admin.ch/gov/fr/accueil/documentation/communiques.msg-id-84941.html |access-date=2023-01-07 |website=www.admin.ch |archive-date=2023-01-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230107202248/https://www.admin.ch/gov/fr/accueil/documentation/communiques.msg-id-84941.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

The rules regarding who can stand as a candidate and vote in elections to the National Council are uniform across the Confederation. Only [[Swiss nationality law|Swiss citizens]] aged at least 18 can stand or vote and the citizens resident abroad can register to vote in the canton in which they last resided (or their [[Place of origin|canton of citizenship]], otherwise) and be able to vote no matter how long since, or whether they ever have, lived in Switzerland.

=== Council of States ===
The 46 members of the Council of States are elected in 20 two-seat constituencies (representing the 20 'full' cantons) and six single-member constituencies (representing the six [[half-canton]]s). Two 'full' cantons with small populations – [[Canton of Uri|Uri]] and [[Canton of Glarus|Glarus]] – each have two seats in the Council of States but only one seat each in the much larger National Council.<ref>{{Cite web |title=IPU PARLINE database: SWITZERLAND (Ständerat – Conseil des États – Consiglio degli Stati), Electoral system |url=http://archive.ipu.org/parline-e/reports/2306_B.htm |access-date=2023-01-07 |website=archive.ipu.org |archive-date=2022-12-09 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221209025251/http://archive.ipu.org/parline-e/reports/2306_B.htm |url-status=live }}</ref>

Elections to the Council of States are regulated by the cantons. The cantons of [[Canton of Jura|Jura]] and [[Canton of Neuchâtel|Neuchâtel]] use proportional representation, while all the others use a majoritarian system, often with [[Two-round system|two rounds]] of voting. In the first round voters typically have up to two votes and candidates need an overall majority to be elected; if seats remain to be filled a runoff is held using simple plurality. All cantons, except Appenzell-Innerrhoden, which elects its state councilor during the [[Landsgemeinde]] in April, hold the first round concurrently with the National Council election, but the dates for the runoffs vary.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Organisation of the Council of States elections |url=https://www.ch.ch/en/elections2023/how-the-elections-are-organised/council-of-states-elections/ |access-date=2023-01-07 |website=www.ch.ch |language=en |archive-date=2023-01-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230107202250/https://www.ch.ch/en/elections2023/how-the-elections-are-organised/council-of-states-elections/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

As each canton regulates its election to the Council of States, the rules regarding who can stand as a candidate and vote in these elections vary canton by canton. Jura and Neuchâtel allow certain foreign residents to vote, whilst [[Canton of Glarus|Glarus]] allows 16- and 17-year-olds to vote. Swiss citizens abroad registered to vote in a canton are permitted to vote in that canton's Council of States election only if the canton's law allows it. Only [[Canton of Schaffhausen|Schaffhausen]] has [[compulsory voting]], though limited in implementation by way of only an insignificant fine.

Nearly a third (30%) of the candidates for the national council are younger than 30 years old. The average age is under 40 for the Greens and PS/SP, and it exceeds 50 for the smaller right-wing parties Ticino League and Geneva Citizens Movement.
