Local elections in Portugal were held on 26 September 2021.[2] The election consisted of three separate elections in the 308 Portuguese municipalities: the election for the Municipal Chamber (the executive branch of the municipality), whose winner is elected mayor; another election for the Municipal Assembly (the deliberative branch of the municipality); and an election for the Parish Assembly (the deliberative branch of the lower-level parish), whose winner is elected parish president. This last one was held separately in the more than 3,000 parishes around the country.

The elections happened during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in Portugal. Because of that, there was a proposal by the Social Democratic Party to postpone the elections for two months and hold the election between 22 November and 14 December 2021.[3] This proposal was rejected by Parliament and the election was to be held in the normal period set by the election law, between 22 September and 14 October.[4] On 1 July 2021, the government announced the election date for 26 September 2021.[2]

The Socialist Party (PS) retained their status as the largest party in local councils, but lost a lot of votes across the country and especially in some big urban centers. The PS lost Coimbra, Funchal and Barcelos to the PSD, and suffered a massive upset in Lisbon, where the PS incumbent mayor Fernando Medina was defeated by the PSD/CDS coalition candidate Carlos Moedas.[5] The PS losses across the country and the upset defeat in Lisbon were labeled as a "yellow card" to António Costa's government.[6]

Despite not winning the most cities in the country as a whole, the Social Democrats (PSD) were considered the big winners of the elections by winning several cities from the Socialists, narrowing the gap nationwide between them and the PS, and for winning back several urban centers, mainly the upset victory in Lisbon.[7] The party also performed very well in the South, gaining ground in the Alentejo region by winning four cities in Évora district and winning Portalegre from an Independent.[8] In the Azores and Madeira regions, the party also made gains but lost some cities like Batalha and Guarda to independent movements. With these results, Rui Rio's position in the PSD leadership was strengthened.[9]

The Unitary Democratic Coalition (CDU) saw another decline and achieved their worst result to date, just 19 mayors and 8% of the votes. The coalition was able to hold on to Évora and Setúbal, albeit by slim margins, but lost big suburban cities like Loures and Moita. In the Alentejo region the coalition lost cities to both PS and PSD, of note the losses of both Montemor-o-Novo and Mora, two Communist bastions since 1976, to the PS.[10] Jerónimo de Sousa, CDU leader, recognized that the results "fell short of the goals" of the coalition.[11]

Independent movements made gains in the elections by winning Guarda from the PSD, and Elvas and Mealhada from the PS. In Porto, mayor Rui Moreira was reelected for a third term but lost his majority. In Figueira da Foz, former prime minister and PSD leader Pedro Santana Lopes made a dramatic comeback, running as an independent, by gaining the city from the PS.[12] The Left Bloc suffered losses by winning just 5 councillors across the country, a drop compared with the 12 councillors they won in 2017, but the party was able to win a councillor in Porto city for the first time.[13] CHEGA was able to win several councillors across the country, a total of 19, and polled 4% of the votes. André Ventura said that the results "weren't a total victory", as the party failed its goal of being the 3rd largest political force.[14] The Liberals (IL) did not win any councillors and polled just 1.3% of the votes. Together for the People (JPP) were able to hold on to Santa Cruz in the Madeira islands, while We, the Citizens! (NC) lost their sole city to the PSD.[15]

Turnout in these elections decreased compared to four years ago, with just 53.6% of voters casting a ballot.

Date

According to the local election law, an election must be called between 22 September and 14 October of the year that the local mandates end. The election is called by a Government of Portugal decree, unlike general elections which are called by the President of the Republic. The Election date must be announced at least 80 days before election day. Election day is the same in all municipalities, and should fall on a Sunday or national holiday. The next local election must, therefore, take place no later than 10 October 2021.[16] In March 2021, Prime Minister António Costa said that the elections should be held in September, hinting that the most likely date for the election would be September 26,[17] which was confirmed in July 2021.[2]

Electoral system

File:Mapa de Portugal (subdivisiones).svg
Map of the 308 municipalities up for election.

All 308 municipalities are allocated a certain number of councilors to elect corresponding to the number of registered voters in a given municipality. Each party or coalition must present a list of candidates. The lists are closed and the seats in each municipality are apportioned according to the D'Hondt method. Unlike in national legislative elections, independent lists are allowed to run.

Council seats and Parish assembly seats are distributed as follows:

Seat allocation for the 2021 local election[18]
Councilors Parish Assembly
Seats Voters Seats Voters
17 only Lisbon 19+a more than 30,000 voters
13 only Porto 19 more than 20,000 voters
11 100,000 voters or more 13 more than 5,000 voters
9 more than 50,000 voters 9 more than 1,000 voters
7 more than 10,000 voters 7 1,000 voters or less
5 10,000 voters or less

a For parishes with more than 30,000 voters, the number of seats mentioned above is increased by one per every 10,000 voters in excess of that number, and then by one more if the result is even.
