Electoral system

Compared to last election, Slovenia is entitled to one more MEP assigned in 2023 after a pre-election assessment of the Parliament composition based on the most recent population figures.{{Cite web |date=2023-09-13 |title=2024 European elections: 15 additional seats divided between 12 countries {{!}} News {{!}} European Parliament |url=https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20230911IPR04910/2024-european-elections-15-additional-seats-divided-between-12-countries |access-date=2023-12-04 |website=www.europarl.europa.eu |language=en}} The 9 members are elected through semi-open list proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency with seats allocated through D'Hondt method and no electoral threshold.{{Cite web |last1=Oelbermann |first1=Kai Friederike |last2=Pukelsheim |first2=Friedrich |date=July 2020 |title=The European Elections of May 2019 |url=https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/STUD/2020/652037/EPRS_STU(2020)652037_EN.pdf |website=europarl.europa.eu |page=14}}

In addition, those eligible to vote must turn 18 years old by election day at the latest.{{Cite web |title=Slovenia - How to vote |url=https://elections.europa.eu/en/how-to-vote/si/ |access-date=2024-02-15 |website=European elections 2024: all you need to know |language=en}}
