FAQ
Last updated: October 17, 2026. Unofficial information. Confirm with your official election office (総務省).
When is the next House of Representatives election?
No polling day was proclaimed in the sources read on 17 October 2026. The latest general election was on 8 February 2026. Article 45 sets a four-year term, which ends sooner if the House is dissolved. This site does not convert those four years into a polling day.
When is the next House of Councillors election?
The House of Councillors overview gives 25 July 2028 as the term end for one group of members. An ordinary election is held within the 30 days before that day. No proclamation was read. This site does not pick one day inside those 30.
How many members does the House of Representatives have?
The Ministry’s page says 465: 289 from single-member districts and 176 from proportional representation.
Does this site call results?
No. The party figures for the 27th House of Councillors election are only the table the House overview says was compiled from the Ministry’s results report. Nothing here decides a majority or a cabinet.
Is this an official website?
No. It is unofficial information from Joshua Israel Ventures LLC. Confirm it with the official election office.
