While I was in Mongolia this summer for the 2024 Parliamentary Elections and was discussing the results for third parties, some interlocutors expressed enthusiasm for the 2024 local (Citizen’s Representatives’ Khural) elections, which will take place tomorrow Mongolia-time (October 11), as an opportunity for third parties to acquire seats.
Comparing the number of candidates by party for the Parliamentary elections (https://ikon.mn/elections/2024/parties) with that for the local elections (https://dnn.mn/news/308908) reveals a sharp contrast:
I have discovered that Ikon.mn has a wealth of information on this election, here it is possible to see how many candidates each party is running for each electoral district. For example, KhUN and the DP’s candidates for Ulaanbaatar and for each of UB’s districts.
