Background

According to Article 65(4) of the Constitution, the maximum term of any given Parliament is five years from the date of its first sitting following a general election, after which it is dissolved by operation of law. However, the Prime Minister may advise the President to dissolve Parliament at any time during the five-year period. A general election must be held within three months after every dissolution of Parliament. Elections are conducted by the Elections Department (ELD), which is under the Prime Minister's Office.

On 23 June 2020 at 4pm, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced during a live televised announcement that President Halimah Yacob had dissolved 13th Parliament of Singapore on the same day and had issued a writ of election with nominations to be held a week later on 30 June 2020.

The Returning Officer is Tan Meng Dui, a former Deputy Secretary at the Ministry of National Development and current CEO of the National Environment Agency. This is his first election as Returning Officer, taking over Ng Wai Choong who served the role in the previous general election.

Changes in election process

The Elections Department introduced several new features for this election to help ease the election process for voters, candidates and election volunteers. Voters will be able to mark their candidate(s) choices more clearly using self-inking pens and enjoy shorter queuing time with the introduction of the e-registration system. Candidates are able to fill in most of the necessary documents online while election volunteers are able to count the number of votes within a shorter duration with the help of counting machines, enabling election results to be released at least 50 minutes earlier. In addition, there will be more polling stations, reducing the average number of voters per polling station from 3,000 to about 2,400. Senior citizens above the age of 65 will be given priority to vote between 8am and 12pm on Polling Day.

The Electoral Boundaries Review Committee is made up of senior civil servants and charged with adjusting the boundaries of electoral divisions prior to an election. The government officially claims this as necessary to ensure minority participation in Parliament amidst demographic changes while ensuring an equitable amount of voters represented per MP, though critics have raised allegations of gerrymandering to disadvantage the opposition. As of 2015, there were 16 group representation constituencies (GRC) and 13 single member constituencies (SMC). Prime Minister Lee convened the committee on 1 August 2019 with instructions to reduce the size of GRCs and increase the amount of SMCs. The exact date of formation was revealed only when Opposition Leader Pritam Singh asked Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing in a written reply in Parliament.

The Committee released its report on 13 March 2020 with the formation of 17 GRCs and 14 SMCs. For the first time since 1991, six-member GRCs were eliminated and reduced to five. A new Sengkang GRC was formed from portions of the former Punggol East and Sengkang West SMCs and the boundaries of Tampines GRC were altered for the first time since 2001, due to the increase in population in the northeastern area of Singapore. Four new SMCs were also carved out (Kebun Baru, Yio Chu Kang, Marymount and Punggol West), three former SMCs were absorbed into neighboring GRCs (Fengshan, Punggol East and Sengkang West), while two SMCs (Hong Kah North and Potong Pasir) had their boundaries modified. The remaining SMCs and four GRCs (Aljunied, Holland-Bukit Timah, Jurong and Tanjong Pagar) were left untouched, though the Workers' Party raised questions on the abolition of SMCs that it had previously contested and lost by a narrow margin. The changes saw about 13% of voters being allocated to a new constituency while increasing the amount of seats from 89 to 93.

Disruptions from COVID-19 pandemic

Main article: COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore

During a Straits Times forum on 11 March, Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat said that the timing of the elections could be affected in view of the worsening pandemic. On 25 March, Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean told Parliament that he believed it would be unconstitutional for the President to form a caretaker government unless a state of emergency had been recommended by the Cabinet to the President.

On 28 March, Tan Cheng Bock responded to Teo's comments by saying that the unconstitutional nature of a caretaker government as a result of a postponing a general election would be far more preferred than having a health emergency by exposing millions of Singaporeans to potential COVID-19 infection.

On 7 April, Minister for Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing introduced the Parliamentary Elections (COVID-19 Special Arrangements) Bill to Parliament which would allow voters under Stay-Home Notices or Quarantine Orders related to COVID-19 to vote outside of their normal electoral divisions in the upcoming General Election. The Bill was passed by Parliament on 4 May and assented to by the President on 15 May. The Parliamentary Elections (COVID-19 Special Arrangements) Act 2020 came into operation on 26 May.

The restrictions on gatherings of more than five people meant that opposition parties seemed unlikely to gather for their usual discussions to avoid a possible multi-party fights in certain constituencies.

Restrictions on election campaigning

On 18 June, the ELD introduced temporary measures to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19, and no rallies and TV screenings pertaining to the election are to be held. Nomination centres will not admit members of the public or supporters. Walkabouts are still allowed, though safe distancing and minimal physical contact still applies. Candidates are also not allowed to make speeches or physical rallies, including during the campaigning, from campaigning vehicles, meaning that there will be no parades held by the candidates after the election.

During polling day, voters are given a recommended two-hour time slot (from 8am to 8pm) on their ballot card as a measure to counter long queues during polling; measures for safe distancing still applies, however, due to a constitution where voting is mandatory, it is currently unknown whether voters with fever or respiratory symptoms are exempt from voting.

Political developments

People's Action Party (PAP)

On 13 March 2016, the PAP MP for Bukit Batok SMC David Ong resigned over personal indiscretions with a party grassroots activist. In the subsequent Bukit Batok by-election, the People's Action Party candidate and former Aljunied GRC candidate Murali Pillai defeated the opposition Singapore Democratic Party candidate Chee Soon Juan to reclaim the seat for the PAP.

In the lead up to the 2017 Singapore presidential election, Speaker of Parliament and MP for Marsiling-Yew Tee GRC Halimah Yacob resigned from the party on 7 August 2017 to fulfill regulations prohibiting the President of Singapore from any party affiliations. As she had vacated her seat in Parliament, there were calls for a by-election, though the Court of Appeal eventually ruled that there was "no duty to call a by-election when a single vacancy arises in a GRC".

On 23 November 2018, Heng Swee Keat and Chan Chun Sing were respectively elected as the party's first and second assistant Secretary-General to the PAP's 35th Central Executive Committee. The two assistant posts were seen as an indicator of Lee Hsien Loong's successor, given that the upcoming election is likely to be Lee's last. Following the announcement of Heng Swee Keat's appointment as the sole Deputy Prime Minister on 1 May 2019, succeeding Teo Chee Hean and Tharman Shanmugaratnam, former MP Inderjit Singh said that the PAP intends to showcase Heng's imminent ascent to the top post and dispell rumours of any surprises in the leadership sucession.

Workers' Party (WP)

On 3 November 2017, then-Secretary-General and Aljunied GRC incumbent MP Low Thia Khiang announced during a speech on the party's 60th anniversary that he would not contest the next party elections. During the party's 2016 Central Executive Committee election, Chen Show Mao had mounted a surprise challenge for the leadership post but lost the election to Low in a 41–65 vote. In the leadership election on 8 April 2018, Pritam Singh was elected unopposed as successor to Low as the party's new Secretary-General.

Observers say that the lack of a contest was a good sign of internal unity, and that the party is keen to demonstrate its multiracial credentials now that it has a non-Chinese secretary-general, for the first time since 2001 with J. B. Jeyaretnam.

On 30 April, Low was hospitalized due to a head injury, and was discharged on 21 May. As Low is currently in rehabilitation, it is currently unknown if he will stand in the elections this year.

New parties

• 2011 presidential election candidate and former Ayer Rajah SMC MP Tan Cheng Bock returned to politics under the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) that he founded together with several previously contested candidates on 18 January 2019. The PSP was officially registered by the Registrar of Societies on 28 March 2019.

• Former leader of the National Solidarity Party (NSP), Lim Tean founded Peoples Voice which was officially registered by the Registrar of Societies on 31 October 2018.

• On 29 May 2020, Ravi Philemon and Michelle Lee, former members of the PSP, announced that they had submitted an application to register a new political party, Red Dot United, with the Registry of Societies. The party was successfully registered on 15 June 2020.

Other parties without parliamentary presence

• The Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) began campaigning on 23 February 2019, and announced a few key campaign agendas over March and May that year. Ahead of the election, the party recruited ex-DPP leader Benjamin Pwee.
• On 16 October 2019, the Singapore People's Party (SPP) saw its first major leadership change since its formation with opposition veteran Chiam See Tong stepping down as secretary-general of the SPP after holding the post for 23 years since December 1996, with former Non-Constituency Member of Parliament Steve Chia succeeding Chiam on 5 November 2019.

• On 3 January 2020, four political parties (Singaporeans First, People's Power Party, Reform Party and Democratic Progressive Party) formally agreed to contest in the election as an alliance. Three months later, on 1 April, the four parties decided to join the Singapore Democratic Alliance instead; however, the SDA has since placed their membership applications on hold, though it seeks to maintain an informal alliance.
