The voting began at 14:00 local time on the 9th and will continue until 14:00 on the 10th. This is the ninth local election held by the Czech Republic since independence in 1993. The local elections were held at the same time as the first round of voting in the Senate election. In the Senate election, a total of 27 constituencies voted.
