The constituency currently elects 11 of the 90 members of the National Assembly using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system. At the 2022 parliamentary election the constituency had 208,281 registered electors.

History

The 7th constituency (Maribor) was one of the eight constituencies established by the Determination of Constituencies for the Election of Deputies to the National Assembly Act (ZDVEDZ) (Zakon o določitvi volilnih enot za volitve poslancev v državni zbor (ZDVEDZ)) passed by the Assembly of the Republic of Slovenia (Skupščina Republike Slovenije) in September 1992.[4] It consisted of the municipalities of Maribor, Ruše, Slovenska Bistrica, Slovenske Konjice and Šmarje pri Jelšah.[4]

Following the re-organisation of municipalities in October 1994, parts of Maribor municipality were transferred to the newly created municipalities of Duplek, Rače-Fram and Starše; parts of Slovenske Konjice municipality were transferred to the newly created municipalities of Vitanje and Zreče; and parts of Šmarje pri Jelšah municipality was split into the newly created municipalities of Kozje, Podčetrtek, Rogaška Slatina and Rogatec.[5][6]

In August 1998 parts of Maribor municipality were transferred to the newly created municipalities of Hoče-Slivnica and Miklavž na Dravskem Polju; parts of Podčetrtek municipality were transferred to the newly created Bistrica ob Sotli municipality; parts of Ruše municipality were transferred to the newly created municipalities of Lovrenc na Pohorju and Selnica ob Dravi; and parts of Slovenska Bistrica municipality were transferred to the newly created Oplotnica municipality.[5][6] Makole and Poljčane municipalities was created from parts of Slovenska Bistrica municipality in June 2006.[7]

In February 2021 the National Assembly passed Amendments and Supplements to the Determination of Constituencies for the Election of Deputies to the National Assembly Act (ZDVEDZ-B) (Zakon o spremembah in dopolnitvah Zakona o določitvi volilnih enot za volitve poslancev v državni zbor (ZDVEDZ-B)) which defined the Maribor constituency as consisting of the municipalities of Bistrica ob Sotli, Duplek, Hoče-Slivnica, Kozje, Lovrenc na Pohorju, Maribor, Miklavž na Dravskem polju, Makole, Oplotnica, Podčetrtek, Poljčane, Rače Fram, Rogaška Slatina, Rogatec, Ruše, Selnica ob Dravi, Slovenska Bistrica, Slovenske Konjice, Šmarje pri Jelšah, Starše, Vitanje in Zreče.[8]

Electoral system

Maribor currently elects 11 of the 90 members of the National Assembly using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system.[9][10] Each constituency is divided into 11 electoral districts (volilni okraji) in which each party stands a single candidate.[11][12] Electors vote for a candidate of their choice in their electoral district and then the votes received by each party's candidates are aggregated at the constituency level.[11]

Allocation of seats was carried out in two stages.[13] In the first stage, seats are allocated to parties at the constituency level using the Droop quota (Hare quota prior to 2006).[14][15][16] In the second stage, unallocated seats from the first stage are aggregated at the national level and allocated to parties using the D'Hondt method (any seats won by the party at the constituency level are subtracted from the party's national seats).[16][17] Though calculated nationally, national seats are allocated at the constituency level.

Since 2000, only parties that reach the 4% national threshold compete for seats at both constituency and national levels.[18][19] Prior to this there was no threshold at the constituency level but parties needed to reach 388 (c3.4%) to compete for seats at the national level.[16]

Seats won by each party in a constituency are allocated to the candidates with the highest percentage of votes.[20] As a consequence, multiple candidates may be elected from an electoral district whilst others may have no candidates elected.[11] Prior to 2000 parties had the option to have up to 50% of their national seats allocated in the order they appear on their party list (closed list).[11]

Maribor is divided into 11 electoral districts:[21]
