Electoral system
The 2022 elections will be the first to be held under a new electoral system. Under the system, the role of Senators is abolished and replaced with 37 Deputies elected across 9 districts via plurality block voting. The election of one Connétable from each of the twelve parishes will be maintained.[1][2]
This election will see the debut of several political parties on the island, including the centre-right Jersey Alliance and Liberal Conservatives and the centrist Progress Party. The existing social-democratic Reform Jersey party will also contest the election
