Ninety-seven seats,
thirty-three constituencies.
Singapore elects its Parliament in constituencies drawn around its public-housing towns: fifteen single seats, and eighteen group constituencies where a team of four or five, at least one from a minority community, is elected on a single vote. On 3 May 2025 the People's Action Party won 87 seats with 65.57% of the vote; the Workers' Party held 10.
The 15th Parliament · first sat 5 September 2025
107 members,
96 of them elected.
97 MPs were returned in May 2025. Two Workers' Party candidates who lost narrowly sit as Non-Constituency MPs, and the President appointed 9 Nominated MPs, who belong to no party. NCMPs have voted like elected MPs since 2016; NMPs may not vote on constitutional amendments, money bills, no-confidence motions or removing a President.

How each is chosen →General Election 2025 · 3 May 2025 · turnout 92.83%
65.6% of the votes,
89.7% of the seats.
Winner takes the constituency. Each SMC goes to whoever tops the poll and each GRC to the whole winning team, so a national lead becomes a larger lead in seats. The Workers' Party contested 8 constituencies and won 50.1% of the votes there, taking Aljunied, Sengkang and Hougang.
One walkover. No one stood against the PAP team in Marine Parade–Braddell Heights GRC on Nomination Day, 23 April 2025: its 131,820 electors did not vote, and its 5 seats were won unopposed. National shares count only contested constituencies.
NCMP top-up. The Constitution guarantees at least twelve opposition members: with 10 elected, the two best losing opposition candidates were offered NCMP seats (ELD).
Every constituency →The next elections
Due by
5 December 2030.
- General election · by 5 December 2030 1,490 days at most
The 15th Parliament first sat on 5 September 2025, so it stands dissolved on 5 September 2030 unless dissolved sooner; the poll must follow within three months. The Prime Minister may advise an earlier dissolution at any time; in practice general elections have been called before Parliament reached its automatic dissolution.
- Presidential election · 2029 1,042 days to the end of the term
President Tharman's six-year term ends on 13 September 2029; the poll may be held from three months before. No community has gone unrepresented for five terms, so it is expected to be open to candidates of any race.
- By-elections 7 May 2016
No by-election since Bukit Batok SMC in May 2016. A GRC seat left vacant (as in Marine Parade–Braddell Heights since July 2026) does not force one.
