The 2022 Parliament of the Republic of North Ossetia–Alania election took place on 10–11 September 2022, on common election day. All 70 seats in the Parliament were up for reelection.

Electoral system[edit]

Under current election laws, the Parliament is elected for a term of five years by party-list proportional representation with a 5% electoral threshold. Seats are allocated using the Imperiali quota, modified to ensure that every party list, which passes the threshold, receives at least 1 mandate ("Tyumen method").[1] Unlike most regional elections in Russia, party lists in North Ossetia are not divided between territorial groups.

Candidates[edit]

To register regional lists of candidates, parties need to collect 0.5% of signatures of all registered voters in North Ossetia.

The following parties were relieved from the necessity to collect signatures:[2]
