independence.
Answers
Answer:
This is a list of the next general elections around the world in democratic polities. The general elections listed are for the government of each jurisdiction. These elections determine the Prime Minister and makeup of the legislature in a parliamentary democracy, or the president and then the legislature in a system where separate votes are taken for different tiers of government.
In most jurisdictions, general elections are held between every three to five years,[1] with presidential elections sometimes attaining six (Mexico, Russia since a 2008 amendment) or seven years (France's septennat until 2000).
A country's constitution may give elections a fixed timing (i.e. United States, Switzerland and Sweden) while some allow the government to dissolve Parliament and call a new vote up to a certain time limit (United Kingdom, Israel and Japan). Some constitutions may require Parliaments to elect the head of state under threat of dissolution (Greece). In most countries the election for the representative assembly determines the government.
