The election will be conducted by the ACT Electoral Commission, using the proportional Hare-Clark system.

Background
The Labor Party, led by Chief Minister Andrew Barr, is attempting to win re-election for a seventh consecutive term (either with a majority of seats or via forming a coalition with another party) in the 25-member unicameral Legislative Assembly. Labor formed a coalition government with the Greens after the last election, and together the two parties hold 16 of the 25 seats in the Assembly. Leader of the Opposition and Liberals leader Alistair Coe was replaced by Elizabeth Lee following the election.
On 12 November 2023, Greens Johnathan Davis resigned from parliament and as a member of the Greens on 12 November 2023.[2]
All members of the unicameral Assembly faced re-election, with members being elected by the Hare-Clark system of proportional representation. The Assembly is divided into five electorates with five members each:
- Brindabella – contains the district of Tuggeranong (except part of the suburb of Kambah east of Drakeford Drive).
- Ginninderra – contains the district of Belconnen (except the suburbs of Giralang and Kaleen).
