===Former use=== * [[Albania]] used parallel voting in the 1996 and 1997 elections (before switching to [[mixed-member proportional representation]] from 2001 to [[2005 Albanian parliamentary election|2005]]).{{sfnm |1a1=Gallagher |1y=2011 |1p=185 |2a1=Gallagher |2y=2014 |2p=18}}<ref>{{cite web |last=Lublin |first=David |title=Albania |website=Election Passport|url=http://www.electionpassport.com/electoral-systems/albania/ |publisher=American University |access-date=24 March 2016}}</ref> * Argentina: [[Santiago del Estero Province]] (1997β2009) * [[Armenia]] * [[Azerbaijan]]'s [[Azerbaijan's National Assembly|National Assembly]] (the Milli MΙclis) had previously used an SM system in which 100 members were elected for five-year terms in single-seat constituencies and 25 were members were elected by proportional representation. Since the latest election Azerbaijan has returned to electing members from single-member constituencies. Due to the corruption present within Azerbaijan,<ref>Election Rigging and How to Fight It ''Journal of Democracy'' - Volume 17, Number 3, July 2006, pp. 138-151.</ref> the limited proportionality that SM was able to offer had little effect. *[[Bulgaria]] (1990, 2009) * [[Croatia]] (1993–2001) * [[Egypt]] (2020) * [[Georgia (country)|Georgia]] (1990β2024): Georgia initially used a two-round system for its constituency seats. Up until 2016, 73 seats out of 150 seats were allocated in constituencies. In the 2020 election, this number was reduced to 30 out of 150 as a result of the [[2019 protests in Georgia (country)|2019 protests]]. By 2024, Georgia will switch to a fully proportional electoral system.<ref>{{cite news|title=Key Points of Newly Adopted Constitution|url=http://civil.ge/eng/article.php?id=30474|access-date=27 September 2017|work=Civil Georgia|date=27 September 2017}}</ref> * [[Italy]] (1993–2005, with modifications) * [[Elections in North Macedonia|North Macedonia]] (1998) * [[Palestinian Authority]] ([[2005 Palestinian presidential election|2005]]), for the [[2014 Palestinian general election|next election]], the system was changed to [[party-list proportional representation]]. *[[South Korea]]: (1988-2024) [[National Assembly (South Korea)|National Assembly]] used parallel voting from 1988 to 2019. From 2019 to 2024, it uses a hybrid system of parallel voting and mixed-member proportional, with both compensatory seats (30) and supplementary seats (17). *[[Ukraine]]: In the [[2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election|last elections]] to the [[Verkhovna Rada]], a parallel voting system was used. 50% of seats are distributed under party lists with a 5% [[election threshold]] and 50% through [[first-past-the-post]] in [[Single-member constituency|single-member constituencies]]. The method of 50/50 mixed elections was used in the 2002, 2012, 2014 and 2019 elections; however, in 2006 and 2007, the elections were held under a proportional system only. According to the election law that became valid on 1 January 2020 the [[Next Ukrainian parliamentary election|next election]] to the Verkhovna Rada again will be held under a proportional scheme.
