Party/list votes and seats follow the election-era ballot labels. Coalition subtotal rows are excluded to avoid double counting. Seats are mandates won by each ballot list, including candidates of allied parties on that list; they are not a later party-membership snapshot. Previous seats compare the immediately preceding general election only where the same organisation and ballot identity can be matched. Independents and changed alliances have no inferred comparison. Colours are an editorial palette; ideological labels describe broad party traditions, not individual candidates. Only three parties were permitted to contest this military-supervised election. The chamber had 400 positions, but the certified historical allocation records 399 elected members; the unfilled seat is not assigned to an invented party. Earlier banned parties and later reconstituted organisations are not assigned predecessor seat comparisons.
