The two-round majority vote is used in constituencies which elect 1 or 2 senators, affecting 18 constituencies and 34 seats in the 2017 elections. The candidate and their alternate must be of a different sex. In order to be elected in the first round, a candidate must secure an absolute majority of votes and a number of votes equal to at least a quarter of electors. If not, a second round is organized, in which case a relative majority will be enough for a candidate to be elected. In case of a tie, the oldest of the candidates is elected. Proportional representation is used in constituencies electing 3 or more senators; in the case of the 2017 elections, this affects 26 constituencies and 130 seats, in addition to the 6 seats for senators representing French residents overseas. Each list must be composed alternately of candidates of each sex.<sup id="cite_ref-mode_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-mode-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Senators are elected through indirect universal suffrage by an electoral college composed of deputies, senators, regional councillors elected within a department, councillors of the <a href="/wiki/Corsican_Assembly" title="Corsican Assembly">Corsican Assembly</a> designated under conditions set out within the electoral code, councillors of the <a href="/wiki/Guianese_Assembly" class="mw-redirect" title="Guianese Assembly">Guianese Assembly</a>, councillors of the <a href="/wiki/Martinican_Assembly" class="mw-redirect" title="Martinican Assembly">Martinican Assembly</a>, and departmental councillors. Delegates of municipal councils, however, make up the large majority of the electoral college, representing 95% of the 162,000 electors. The number of delegates of the municipal councils depends on the municipal population authenticated on 1 January 2014 by the census.
