Moroccan elections may crown first female PM

The results of the 2026 Moroccan parliamentary elections showed an increase in voter turnout to 38.02%, compared to 50.35% in the 2021 elections, despite the registered voters on the electoral lists reaching 15.8 million. The Authenticity and Modernity Party won 97 seats, outperforming the other parties, while election results also saw a significant rise in the seats of the Justice and Development Party from 13 to 54, reflecting a strong return after its decline in the previous elections. The balance of parliamentary power shifted noticeably, with the Authenticity and Modernity Party moving from second place to first, and the National Rally of Independents securing 66 seats, down from 102 seats in 2021. It is expected that two figures from the Authenticity and Modernity Party, Fawzi Legdou and Fatima Zahra Mansouri, will play key roles in leading the government, with the possibility that Mansouri could become the first woman to hold the office of Prime Minister in Morocco, despite challenges related to protocol and religious considerations tied to official ceremonies.
