Incumbent Prime Minister

António Costa
PS



Snap legislative elections will take place on 10 March 2024 to elect members of the Assembly of the Republic to the 16th Legislature of Portugal. All 230 seats to the Assembly of the Republic will be at stake.

Background

The Socialist Party (PS), led by Prime Minister António Costa, won an absolute majority in the 2022 legislative election with 41% of the votes and 120 seats in the 230 seat Assembly of the Republic. The main opposition party, the Social Democratic Party (PSD), got 77 seats and 29% of the votes, while far-right party Chega (Enough) gain 12 seats and 7%. The Liberal Initiative (IL) were able to win 8 seats and gather almost 5% of the votes. The far-left parties, the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP) and the Left Bloc (BE), achieved one of their worst results ever with 4% of the votes and 6 and 5 seats, respectively. PAN and LIVRE were able to win just one seat each.[1]

António Costa's third government was sworn in on 30 March 2022. This government proved very unstable with several scandals and/or controversies affecting it. By mid 2023, the government had already suffered 13 resignations, 11 Secretaries of state and 2 Ministers.[2] The main controversy regarded TAP Air Portugal and a compensation payment to a government member, Alexandra Reis.[3] This case was followed by an incident, in late April 2023, at the Ministry of Infrastructure building between government staff members and an advisor to Minister João Galamba regarding an alleged stolen laptop.[4] The use of the Portuguese Secret Services in this case generated a clash between President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa and Prime Minister António Costa concerning the future of minister João Galamba and of the government itself.[5]

Fall of the government

On 7 November 2023, it was reported that the Public Security Police and the Public Prosecutor's office carried out a series of searches at the official residence of the Prime Minister and other ministries, and that the Prime Minister's chief of staff had been arrested.[6] Costa was named as a suspect in a corruption case involving the awarding of contracts for the lithium and hydrogen businesses.[7] He met with President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa in the Presidential Palace and announced his resignation shortly after, stating that he would not run for re-election.[8]

The President heard all parties after Costa's resignation.[9] The Socialist Party proposed a new cabinet led by President of the Assembly of the Republic Augusto Santos Silva[10] or Governor of the Bank of Portugal Mário Centeno[11] that would last until the end of the government's term in 2026, while all opposition parties, except PAN, supported an early election.[12] President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, after meeting with the Council of State, called an early election for 10 March 2024.[13]

The Prime Minister's resignation was not made official immediately, it was postponed until 8 December 2023, so that the State Budget for 2024 could be approved by parliament.[14][15]

This marks the first time a single party majority government has not completed its full term in democratic Portugal.

Politics of Portugal

The President of Portugal has the power to dissolve the Assembly of the Republic by their own will. Unlike in other countries, the President can refuse to dissolve the parliament at the request of the Prime Minister or the Assembly of the Republic and all the parties represented in Parliament. If the Prime Minister resigns, the President must appoint a new Prime Minister after listening to all the parties represented in Parliament and then the government programme must be subject to discussion by the Assembly of the Republic, whose members of parliament may present a motion to reject the upcoming government.

Date

According to the Portuguese Constitution, an election must be called between 14 September and 14 October of the year that the legislature ends. The election is called by the President of Portugal but is not called at the request of the Prime Minister; however, the President must listen to all of the parties represented in Parliament and the election day must be announced at least 60 days before the election.[16] If an election is called during an ongoing legislature (dissolution of parliament) it must be held at least after 55 days. Election day is the same in all multi-seat constituencies, and should fall on a Sunday or national holiday. In normal circunstances, the next legislative election would, therefore, have taken place no later than 11 October 2026.[17]

On 9 November 2023, President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa announced he would dissolve the parliament and called an early election for 10 March 2024.[13] On 15 January 2024, he dissolved the parliament and officially scheduled the election for 10 March 2024.[18]

Leadership changes and challenges

CDS – People's Party

In the 2022 elections, the CDS–People's Party was wiped out from Parliament for the first time in 47 years of democracy.[19] CDS leader Francisco Rodrigues dos Santos resigned on election night and announced that a leadership ballot would be held.[20] On 11 February, it was announced that a new leader would be elected in a party congress on 2 and 3 April 2022 held in Guimarães.[21] MEP Nuno Melo, former MP Nuno Correia da Silva, 2016 leadership candidate Miguel Mattos Chaves and Bruno Filipe Costa announced they would contest the ballot.[22][23][24][25] During the congress, Bruno Filipe Costa and Nuno Correia da Silva dropped out from the race.[26] Nuno Melo was easily elected as leader with more than 77% of the votes. The results were the following:

People Animals Nature (PAN) held a leadership ballot on 20 May 2023.[42] Two candidates were on the ballot: Incumbent leader Inês Sousa Real and Nelson Silva, MP between 2019 and 2022. Silva accused Sousa Real of leading the party to irrelevance and that now it's time to "save" and "rebuild" the party.[43] In a rather tense congress, with strong accusations between both sides,[44] Inês Sousa Real was re-elected party leader with 73% of the votes.[45] The results were the following:

Left Bloc

Mariana Mortágua announcing her candidacy on 27 February 2023 in Lisbon.

On 14 February 2023, party coordinator Catarina Martins announced she would not run for another term as party leader.[46] Her reasons were that the party needed someone new to lead it, that in the party there are not very long periods of leadership and that the "new political cycle" forces a change. A party leadership convention was held between 27 and 28 May 2023, in Lisbon.[47]

While names like MEP Marisa Matias and caucus leader Pedro Filipe Soares discarded a candidacy for the leadership, MP Mariana Mortágua decided to run for the party leadership.[48] Her candidacy was confirmed on 27 February 2023.[49] A list of critics of the then party leadership, led by former MP Pedro Soares, opposed Mortágua in the convention ballot.[50] On 28 May 2023, Mariana Mortágua was easily elected as new party coordinator with 83% of the delegates votes.[51] The results were the following:

Socialist Party

After the resignation of António Costa as Prime Minister on 7 November 2023, following the Operation Influencer corruption investigation, and his announcement that he would not run again for office, the Socialist Party (PS) held a leadership election to elect a new leader[52] on 15 and 16 December 2023.[53] On 9 November 2023, former Minister of Infrastructure and Housing Pedro Nuno Santos announced his candidacy for the party leadership,[54] while Minister of Internal Administration José Luís Carneiro announced his intention to run on the following day.[55] On 18 November 2023, Daniel Adrião, a member of the National Commission of PS and candidate in the PS leadership elections of 2016, 2018 and 2021, announced his candidacy.[56] On 16 December, Pedro Nuno Santos was easily elected with almost 61% of the votes, compared with the 37% of José Luís Carneiro.[57] The results were the following:

Electoral system

The Assembly of the Republic has 230 members elected for four-year terms. Governments do not require an absolute majority support of the Assembly to hold office, as even if the number of opposition MPs is larger than that of its supporters, the opposition still needs to be equal to or greater than 116 (absolute majority) for both the Government's Programme to be rejected or for a motion of no confidence to be approved.[58]

The number of seats assigned to each district depends on the district magnitude.[59] The use of the d'Hondt method makes for a higher effective threshold than certain other allocation methods such as the Hare quota or Sainte-Laguë method, which are more generous to small parties.[60]

The distribution of MPs by electoral district in the 2022 general election was the following:[61]
