East Tyrol was one 43 regional electoral districts (regionalwahlkreise) established by the "National Council Electoral Regulations 1992" (Nationalrats-Wahlordnung1992) passed by theNational Council in 1992.^[3] It was conterminous with thedistrict ofLienz in thestate ofTyrol.^[4] The district was initially allocated one seat in May 1993.^[5]

East Tyrol currently elects one of the 183 members of the National Council using theopenparty-list proportional representationelectoral system.^[6][7][8] The allocation of seats is carried out in three stages.^[9] In the first stage, seats are allocated to parties (lists) at the regional level using a state-wideHare quota (wahlzahl) (valid votes in the state divided by the number of seats in the state).^[10][11] In the second stage, seats are allocated to parties at the state/provincial level using the state-wide Hare quota (any seats won by the party at the regional stage are subtracted from the party's state seats).^[10][11] In the third and final stage, seats are allocated to parties at the federal/national level using theD'Hondt method (any seats won by the party at the regional and state stages are subtracted from the party's federal seats).^[10][11] Only parties that reach the 4% nationalthreshold, or have won a seat at the regional stage, compete for seats at the state and federal stages.^[10][11]

Electors may cast one preferential vote for individual candidates at the regional, state and federal levels.^[11] Split-ticket voting (panachage), or voting for more than one candidate at each level, is not permitted and will result in the ballot paper beinginvalidated.^[11][12] At the regional level, candidates must receive preferential votes amounting to at least 14% of the valid votes cast for their party to over-ride the order of theparty list (10% and 7% respectively for the state and federal levels).^[12] Prior to April 2013 electors could not cast preferential votes at the federal level and the thresholds candidates needed to over-ride the party list order were higher at the regional level (half the Hare quota or1⁄6 of the party votes) and state level (Hare quota).^[11][13][14]
