Electors living abroad or working aboard ships and oil rigs are included in this constituency.

History The constituency of Warsaw I, officially Constituency no. 1, was established in June 1991 by the Electoral Ordinance to the Sejm of the Republic of Poland (Ordynacja wyborcza do Sejmu Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej). It consisted of the city (miasto) of Warsaw. It was renamed Constituency no. 19 in 2001.
Electoral system Warsaw I currently elects 20 of the 460 members of the Sejm using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system. Constituency seats are allocated using the D'Hondt method. Only lists that reach the 5% national threshold compete for constituency seats (8% for coalition lists). If the thresholds result in only one list qualifying to compete for seats, the threshold is reduced to 3% (5% for coalition lists). Lists representing national minorities are exempt from threshold requirements.
