What happened in 2026?
The first election under the new 96-member proportional system made Plaid Cymru the largest party with 43 seats. Reform UK Wales won 34.
The 2026 election used the Senedd’s new closed proportional list system, with 16 six-member constituencies and one vote per elector. This is a break in the historical series.
