 * I've wrote the step by step increase of seats on the french article, if you want to translate and source it on here. ;) --Aréat (talk) 12:45, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry I don't speak French. Please update the english article too.— Bukhari    (Talk!)   13:51, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Done.--Aréat (talk) 16:52, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * and results of first round :)— Bukhari    (Talk!)   17:46, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't have a source on complete definitive results.--Aréat (talk) 17:52, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Any source in French? — Bukhari    (Talk!)   17:56, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, neither in english nor french. Only preliminary sources so far. We better wait for the elections to be fully over. I'm not even so sure of the election process. From the look of the preliminary results and previous elections result, it seem to me the proportional seats are purely segregated by sex, which is not the same thing. --Aréat (talk) 18:00, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Results have appeared on the CENI website. I've transcribed the national PR seats. The women's PR seats and the constituency seats are also available. However, they are votes and %s only, no seat figures.

A couple of oddities – firstly there seems to be a category for "neutres". Is this a none of the above type vote? It is separate to blank votes. Secondly, the national PR votes don't add up to the total – there is a difference of 879. Number  5  7  18:47, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
 * These are preliminary results. That's why I preferred to wait for the complete ones. "Votes neutres" are officially recognised blank votes that are counted as valid votes to calculate percentages. Thus, a candidate can be elected in the second round with less than 50 %. Invalid votes are counted separately and not included. Cordially.--Aréat (talk) 19:04, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
