Electoral system
[edit]The President of Tanzania is elected by plurality voting; the candidate who receives the most votes is elected. Article 39(1) of the 1977 constitution requires candidates to be Tanzanian citizens by birth, at least 40 years old, be nominated by a political party of which they are a member, be qualified to be an MP or a member of the Zanzibar House of Representatives, and not have any convictions related to tax evasion.[2]
Candidates
[edit]In January 2025, the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi party nominated incumbent president Samia Suluhu Hassan as its presidential candidate for the election.[3]
