Parliamentary elections were held in Romania on 9 March 1980.[1] The Front of Socialist Unity and Democracy (FDUS), dominated by the Romanian Communist Party (PCR) and including other mass organisations, was the only organisation that contested the election.[2] No prospective candidate could run for office without the Front's prior approval.[3] The Front won all 369 seats in the Great National Assembly.[4]
Candidates were elected in single member constituencies, and had to receive over 50% of the vote.[5] If no candidate passed this threshold, or if voter turnout in the constituency was less than 50%, re-runs were held until the requirements were met.[5] Voters had the option of voting against the Front candidates.[2]
