2023 Liechtenstein local elections
The 2023 Liechtenstein local elections were held on 5 March and 2 April to elect the municipal councils and the mayors of the eleven municipalities of Liechtenstein.
Electoral system
The municipal councils are composed of an even number of councillors plus the mayor. The number of councillors is determined by population count: 6 or 8 councillors for population 1,500, 8 or 10 councillors for population between 1,500 and 3,000, and 10 or 12 councillors for population over 3,000.Councillors were elected in single multi-member districts, consisting of the municipality's territory, using an open list proportional representation system. Voting was on the basis of universal suffrage in a secret ballot.
The mayors were elected in a two-round system. As two of the municipalities saw none of the candidates achieving a majority in the first round, a second round was held four weeks later, where the candidates with a plurality were elected as a mayor.
