Guinea elects on the national level a head of state—the president—and a legislature. The president is elected for a five-year term by the people through a two-round system (i.e. if no candidate secures a majority of the votes, there is a runoff between the top two vote-getters).^[1] The National Assembly (Assemblée Nationale) has 114 members, elected for five-year terms, 38 members in single-seat constituencies and 76 members by proportional representation.^[1][2]

Voters must be at least 18 years old and Guinean citizens in full possession of civil and political rights.^[2] Candidates must be at 18, either Guinean by citizenship or naturalized and resident in the country for at least 10 years.^[2] There are also various disqualifications.^[2]
