The government announced that isolated voters will be able to vote, and recommended that these voters cast a ballot during the last hour of polls open, between 6 pm and 7 pm.
The voters will elect members of the Assembly of the Republic to the 15th Legislature of the Third Republic. All 230 seats to the Assembly of the Republic will be at stake.
In October 2021, the budget proposed by the Socialist minority government was rejected by the Assembly of the Republic. The Left Bloc (BE) and the Communist Party (PCP) joined the right-wing parties and rejected the budget.
On 4 November 2021, the President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, announced a snap election to be held on 30 January 2022.
These elections will be the third elections to happen in Portugal during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as the country had both presidential elections and local elections in 2021. (ILKHA)
