International Court of Justice judges are elected through parallel procedures at the General Assembly and the Security Council, independently of one another. To be elected, a candidate must obtain an absolute majority of votes both in the General Assembly and in the Security Council. In the Security Council, eight votes out of fifteen constitute an absolute majority. In the General Assembly 97 votes out of 193 constitute an absolute majority.
