Another group is composed of politicians from the Justicialist Party and the Renewal Front .Chamber of Deputies The 257 members of the Chamber of Deputies are elected by proportional representation in 24 multi-member constituencies based on the provinces . Seats are allocated using the d'Hondt method with a 3% electoral threshold .
