All the parties in the Kurdish areas are going to run on an united front.  This means the will most likely get 99% of the vote or something like that because there is no other choice.  Reminds me of the various Saddam Hussain votes they used to have.

Actually it's more like majority black areas.

The whole country is a single constituency with 275 seats.
Seats will be distributed "exactly proportionally", which I guess is supposed to mean Sainte-Lague. There is no threshold. That means about 0.25% of the vote will be enough to gain a seat. It also means that areas with higher turnout will be overrepresented according.

Probably not the ideal setup bearing in mind the circumstances...
