Voting system?

• The members of the National Congress, in both the Assembly and the Senate, are elected through a variety of methods depending on the province they are running in. The only universal rules, as set by the Constitution, are that the legislators are chosen via direct popular election and that the members represent a geographically defined constituency. Most provinces elect their politicians, including legislators, via a simple two-round system. A number of provinces scattered across the country have implemented various other voting systems for both federal and provincial-level elections. The most popular of these alternate voting systems is instant-runoff voting.
