United List Wins Historic Victory in Latvia Parliamentary Election

The United List won a decisive victory in Latvia's 15th Saeima election, securing 42 seats in parliament with 35.3% of the vote. This result represents the highest number of seats won by any single political force since the restoration of Latvia's independence.

Other parties entering the Saeima include Latvia First with 17 seats, the Sovereign Power/Young Latvians alliance with 15 seats, the National Alliance with 10 seats, the Progressives with 9 seats, and New Unity with 7 seats. The Union of Greens and Farmers failed to enter parliament after receiving 4.41% of the vote, falling short of the 5% electoral threshold.

Despite the historic win for the United List, voter turnout reached a historic low of 51.8%, the lowest participation rate recorded since the restoration of independence.
