Elections in Nicaragua gives information on elections and election results in Nicaragua. The Republic of Nicaragua elects on national level a head of state – the president – and a unicameral legislature. The President of Nicaragua and his or her vice-president are elected on one ballot for a five-year term by the people. The National Assembly (Asamblea Nacional) has 92 members: 90 deputies elected for a five-year term by proportional representation (20 nationally and 70 regionally), the outgoing president, and the runner-up in the last presidential election. Should the president be reelected (not originally planned for in the Nicaraguan constitution), the outgoing vice president takes the seat reserved for him instead. Nicaragua has a multi-party system.
