Electle's daily board for 19 October 2026: a 95-seat parliament diagram in red, blue and green above a world map, with a Year box and a Guess button

Electle shows you the seating diagram of a lower house after an election, coloured by party, and asks two things: which country, and which year? Pick the country on a world map and type a year; the game tells you if you are in the right region and whether to go earlier or later.

About Electle

Electle is a daily quiz for people who follow elections. Each day it shows one parliamentary seating chart, the half-circle diagrams of seats coloured by party that appear in election coverage, always for a lower house. The diagrams come from Wikimedia Commons, about 1,500 of them, and span many countries and more than a century of elections.

To guess, you click a country on a zoomable world map and enter an election year. If the country is right it lights up green; if it is wrong but in the right region, the neighbouring countries are highlighted; the year gets an arrow telling you to go higher or lower. You keep guessing until you have both, and can then share your number of attempts.

The daily parliament is picked from the date, so everyone faces the same chart, and a timer counts down to the next one. Endless mode serves random charts for practice, and Easy mode drops the year so you only need the country.

It suits politics fans, students of comparative government and anyone who reads election results for fun.

Tips

The total number of seats is a strong clue to the country.
Look for a dominant party or a crowded field of small parties: both say a lot about the political system.
