Description of the electoral system:
Azerbaijan's electoral system provides for the election of the president by personal and secret ballot during two rounds. Specifically, in the first round a candidate to be elected must win most of the votes, while if none of the candidates succeeds in this then a second round is held between those who collected the most votes and thus the president emerges. The term of office of the president is seven years.
