Luxembourg legislative election, 2004
|
|
Legislative elections were held in Luxembourg on June 13, 2004. Voters elected 60 members of the Grand Duchy's unicameral legislature, the Chamber of Deputies.
As expected, the ruling Christian Social People's Party (CSV) of Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker was re-elected for a further five-year term in office. The main opposition party, the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party, and the Greens also slightly increased their representation. The main losers were the liberal Democratic Party.
The election coincided with the 2004 European Parliament election.

Under Luxembourg's electoral system the country is divided into four multi-member regions. Voters may vote for as many candidates as the region elects Deputies. The number of voters cast for each party therefore cannot be stated. For detailed voting statistics of each region see the link below.
