The House of Representatives of Jordan is the elected lower house of the Jordanian parliament which, along with the Senate, composes the legislature of Jordan.[1]
The House of Representatives has 138 elected members, serving for four-year terms.
Members are elected by a mixed electoral system, allowing two votes for each person, one vote for individuals running in 18 local districts, and another for political parties for the national district. Out of the 138 seats of the House, 97 are for representatives from local district, and 41 for representatives from the national district, with 12 quotas for the Christian, Circassian, and Chechen minorities, as well as 18 seats for women's quota.
The presiding officer is the speaker.
Traditionally, the Jordanian House of Representatives ran as a Nonpartisan system, with an overwhelming majority of representatives being nonpartisan. However, since the 2024 Jordanian general election, the parliament has developed a Party system for the first time.
