2 Legislative branch
Legislative functions are vested in Parliament, which consists of a unicameral 275-member body plus the Speaker.
To become law, legislation must have the assent of the
president, who has a qualied veto over all bills except those to which a vote of urgency is attached. The
members are elected for a four-year term in single-seat
constituencies by simple majority vote. As it is predicted
by Duvergers law, the voting system has encouraged
Ghanaian politics into a two-party system, which means
that there are two dominant political parties, with extreme
diculty for anybody to achieve electoral success under
the banner of any other party. Elections have been held
every four years since 1992. Presidential and parliamentary elections are held alongside each other, generally on
7 December.
