Grenada elects on national level a legislature. Parliament has two chambers. The House of Representatives has 15 members, elected for a five-year term in single-seat constituencies.

Grenada has a two-party system, which means that there are two dominant political parties, with extreme difficulty for anybody to achieve electoral success under the banner of any other party.
