2018 Rwandan parliamentary election

Parliamentary elections were held in Rwanda on 3 September 2018,[1] with Rwandan overseas voting the day before.[2] The result was a victory for the Rwandan Patriotic Front coalition, which won 40 of the 53 elected seats while losing its absolute majority over the total of seats, whilst the Democratic Green Party and Social Party Imberakuri both entered parliament for the first time. With 49 of the 80 seats in the newly elected parliament held by women (61%),[3] the elections maintained Rwanda's position as the country with the highest proportion of female MPs.[4]
