General elections will be held in Guatemala on June 16, 2019, to elect the President and Congress, with a second round of the presidential elections to be held on August 11, 2019, if no candidate wins a majority in the first round.

Incumbent President Jimmy Morales is constitutionally prohibited from running for a second four-year term.[1][2]

Electoral system

The President of Guatemala is elected using the two-round system.[3]

The 160 members of Congress are elected by two methods; 130 are elected from 22 multi-member constituencies based on the departments, with the remaining 31 elected from a single nationwide constituency. Seats are elected using closed list proportional representation, with seats allocated using the d'Hondt method.[3]
