Results by province.

Legislative elections were held in New Caledonia on 12 May 2019 to elect members of the Congress of New Caledonia and members of the provincial assemblies.

Anti-independence parties retained their majority in Congress, with the centre-right, liberal conservative Future with Confidence party winning a plurality of seats in Congress.

Electoral system

Voters elect 76 members to the assemblies of the three provinces of New Caledonia (40 for South Province, 22 for North Province, and 14 for the Loyalty Islands Province). In turn, 54 also become members of the Congress of New Caledonia (32 from South Province, 15 from North Province, and 7 from Loyalty Islands Province).

The elections are held under party-list proportional representation using a 5% electoral threshold and the highest averages method to allocate seats. The elections used a restricted roll, which restricts voting depending on how long someone has lived in New Caledonia. Only persons residing in New Caledonia since at least 8 November 1998 (and their children, once they reach the age of majority) are able to vote.
