The table below considers European Parliament elections, national parliament, and presidential elections in European states and territories, including national parliament by-elections. It includes all regional elections and some local elections where these are held on a national basis or involve a capital city. “National parliament” in bicameral systems refers to the lower house unless specified otherwise.
Elections printed boldly have a direct or indirect impact on the European Council. The tilde (~) indicates that the election will occur in or around that month and no election date has been set yet. If only a month is mentioned, the election will take place in the month, but no date has been set yet. Elections in states marked with the asterisks (*) are not considered free or fair.
EU, national parliament, and presidential as well as regional elections in any federation and in unitary states with more than 40 million inhabitants are covered live on our social media. Local elections are also covered if the capital region is involved.
