According to the results of the count of approximately 90% of the votes in the elections to the 15th Saeima, the "United List" achieves a convincing victory, and due to the potential inability of the Union of Greens and Farmers (ZZS) to overcome the 5% barrier, the current coalition in an incomplete composition could receive 59 parliamentary mandates, according to data published on the website of the Central Election Commission.

Since the ZZS has fallen below the 5% threshold, receiving 4.62% of the votes, six parties remain above this mark.

So far, 35.44% of the votes have been cast for the "United List." In second place is "Latvia First" (LPM) with 13.22% of the votes, followed by the party alliance "Sovereign Power"/"Young Latvians" (SV/Young Latvians) with 11.73% of the votes. The National Alliance has received 9.09% of the counted votes so far.

Next are the "Progressives" with 7.24% of the votes and "New Unity" with 6.18% of the votes.

Thus, these parties can currently expect to pass into the Saeima. With the ZZS dropping out of the circle of parties potentially entering the Saeima, the number of mandates for the "United List" significantly increases, which in this scenario could count on 41 parliamentary seats. Meanwhile, the LPM could receive 17 mandates, SV/Young Latvians - 15, the National Alliance - 11, the "Progressives" - nine, and "New Unity" - seven mandates.

This means that the current coalition in an incomplete composition - without the ZZS - could altogether receive 59 seats in the Saeima, thus ensuring a majority. According to the current results, even just two parties - the "United List" and the National Alliance, with a total of 52 parliamentary mandates, could form a coalition and secure a majority, considering the previously stated "red lines."

Along with the ZZS, the other parties did not receive the minimum required 5% of the votes to enter the Saeima. The party "We Change the Rules" currently has 3.47% of the votes, the party "For the Development of Latvia" has 2.13%, the party "For Stability!" has 2.03%, the party "Rising Sun for Latvia" has 1.34%, the "Gobzem's List" has 0.98%, the "Harmony Center" has 0.84%, and the New Conservative Party has 0.33% of the votes.
