The 2009 European Parliament election in Constantinople was held on June 7, 2009 in order to elect all 18 members of the Constantinopolitan delegation to the European Parliament. The election used a system of closed-list proportional representation with a "natural threshold" of 1/18th (5.55%) of votes to secure a seat. The conservative Liberal Reform Party won the most seats while the previously dominant New Way dropped to third place. The election was marked by the ascendance of leftist Eurosceptic parties as the Coalition of Leftist Parties and the Socialists won a combined 7 seats.
