Election-era list/front labels are retained. Shared coalition cells are counted once; constituent seats are grouped under the common list. No ideology or legal organisational continuity is inferred. Minority representative mandates are retained in the Chamber allocation. Historical chamber size is taken from that election’s table, not today’s statutory allocation.
