Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox electionШаблон:Politics of Lithuania
Presidential elections are due to be held in Lithuania on 12 May 2024, alongside a referendum on allowing multiple citizenships.[1] A second round will be held two weeks later if no candidate receives an absolute majority of the vote.[2]
Electoral system
The elections will be held using the two-round system. To win in the first round, a candidate requires an absolute majority of the vote and either voter turnout to be above 50% or for their vote share to be equivalent to at least one-third of the number of registered voters. If no candidate wins in the first round, a second round is required, featuring the top two candidates. All candidates for president are independent. While some candidates belong to and/or are supported by a political party, the office of the president is formally non-partisan.[3]
Citizens of Lithuania at least 40 years of age whose at least one parent was also a citizen (natural-born-citizen clause), who have lived in Lithuania for at least three years prior, are not serving a prison sentence, are not on active duty in the Lithuanian Armed Forces, are not bound to any other country by an oath and have never been impeached, are allowed to run for President. Each candidate must collect at least 20 thousand signatures by Lithuanian citizens to be able to run for election.[4]
Candidates
Declared candidates
All potential candidates for President must gather 20 thousand signatures physically or online in order to be registered.[5] This list includes politicians who have declared their intention to register for the election.
Candidates that failed registration
Andrej Deivis Ginevičas, Kęstutis Macevičius, and Antanas Kandrotas were denied formal registration as candidates due to their failure to provide all relevant documents during the registration process.[20]
