In an analysis by Phileleftheros, using a district-based model for the May 25, 2026 Cypriot elections, the Democratic Rally (DISY) would have significantly increased their parliamentary seats from 17 to 26, creating a five-party House. The current electoral system, which includes national-level distributions, allows for broader representation but is criticized for being unfair as it can leave candidates with more votes out of parliament. Direct Democracy Cyprus would not have made it into parliament under the district-only model since none of its candidates met the electoral quotient in any district. Notably, the simulated results showed a shift in parliamentary composition with fewer parties represented, altering the political landscape in districts like Limassol and Famagusta, which currently accommodate more diverse representation.
