Parliamentary elections were held in Montenegro, at the time a constituent republic of Federal Republic of Yugoslavia on November 3, 1996, the same day as the first round of the 1996 Serbian local elections.[1] The result was a victory for the ruling Democratic Party of Socialists which won 45 of the 71 seats.
Electoral system
Of the 71 seats in Parliament, 64 were elected by proportional representation in a nationwide constituency and seven were elected in a special constituency for minority lists. The electoral threshold was set at 6% and seats allocated using the d'Hondt method. Closed lists were used with a single list for both constituencies, although parties only had to award half their seats according to the order of the list, with the remaining half free for them to allocate.
