Costa Rica elects on national level a head of state – the president – and a legislature. The President of Costa Rica is, together with two vice-presidents, elected for a four-year term by the people. The Legislative Assembly (Asamblea Legislativa) has 57 members, elected for four-year terms by proportional representation in each of the country's seven province.
Costa Rica had a two-party system, which means that there were two dominant political parties, making it extremely difficult for anybody to achieve electoral success under the banner of any other party. In the most recent elections, more parties have achieved electoral success.
