Elections in Chad gives information on election and election results in Chad.

Chad elects on national level a head of state - the president - and a legislature. The president is elected for a five year term by the people. The National Assembly ("Assemblée Nationale") has 155 members, elected for a four year term in 25 single-member constituencies and 34 multi-member constituencies. Chad is a one party dominant state with the Patriotic Salvation Movement in power, although according to the African Union, elections in Chad are generally free and fair. Human Rights Watch, however has criticized the election process in Chad, arguing that they have have problems such as electoral fraud, multiple voting, underage voting, and low voter turnout.
