Election Date:
October 30, 2024
General elections were held in Botswana on 30 October 2024 to determine the composition of the 13th Parliament of Botswana and local councils across the country. Up for election were 61 seats of the National Assembly as well as 609 local council seats, all elected through the first-past-the-post voting system.
The centre-right Botswana Democratic Party (BDP), which had dominated the country's politics since independence in 1966, was decisively beaten by the centre-left opposition Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC). Large voter swings toward opposition parties led to the BDP falling to fourth place.
