Candidates from the ruling Yeni Azerbaijan (New Azerbaijan) party won about 65 of 125 seats in the single-chamber parliament, Mazahir Panakhov, the Central Election Commission (CEC) head, said early on Monday after counting the results from around 110 districts.
A host of small parties and independents loyal to the government took almost all the rest.
The single-chamber parliament is elected every five years through voting for individual candidates in electoral districts.
