  • The Portuguese local elections of 1982 took place on 12 December. They were the third local elections in Portugal since the democratic revolution of 1974 introduced the concept of democratic local power. The elections consisted of three separate elections in the 305 Portuguese municipalities that existed at the time, the election for the Municipal Chambers, whose winner is elected mayor, another election for the Municipal Assembly and a last one for the lower-level Parish Assembly, whose winner is elected parish president, this last was held separately in the more than 4,000 parishes around the country. The Socialist Party finished once more on the top of the results table, increasing its share by 4%, however that was because the coalition between the two major right-wing parties, the Democratic and Social Center and the Social Democratic Party, the Democratic Alliance, did not participate in all Municipalities and Parishes, being the parties which composed it, separated in many Municipalities. This right wing coalition did, however, lose some voting in relation to the previous election. The left-wing United People Alliance dominated the election in the municipalities of the South of the country, gathering more than 60% of the voting and achieving its best result ever with 20.7% and 55 mayors.

  • As eleições autárquicas portuguesas de 1982 foram realizadas a 12 de Dezembro de 1982 e foram as terceiras eleições realizadas para o poder local, após a Revolução dos Cravos. Estas eleições serviram para eleger os membros do poder local de Portugal, que eram compostos por 305 presidentes de Câmaras Municipais, 1913 vereadores, 9897 mandatos para as Assembleias Municipais e cerca de 42000 mandatos para as assembleias de juntas de freguesias. Quanto aos resultados, o PS foi o partido mais votado, obtendo cerca de 31 % dos votos, um aumento de 4% em relação ás autárquicas de 1979, e conquistando 83 presidentes de Câmaras Municipais, um aumento de 23 comparando com as anteriores eleições. Importa referir que apesar do PS ter sido a força mais votada, os partidos de centro-direita obtiveram, somando os resultados obtidos pela AD, PSD, CDS e PPM, cerca de 42% dos votos. Este resultado, apesar de tudo, implica uma queda de 7% dos votos e uma perda de 30 presidências de Câmaras Municipais em comparação com as anteriores autárquicas de 1979. Por fim, de realçar o forte resultado obtido pela APU, liderada pelo PCP, que foi a segunda força mais votada, ultrapassando a barreira de 1 milhão de votos e conquistando cerca de 21% dos votos e 55 presidências de Câmaras.
