Morocco Elections Shift with Authenticity and Justice
The Moroccan Ministry of Interior announced the results of the legislative elections held on September 23. The "Authenticity and Modernity" Party led the results with 97 seats out of 395, followed by the "National Rally of Independents" with 66 seats, and the "Istiqlal" Party with 65 seats. The "Justice and Development" Party came in fourth with 54 seats, marking a strong comeback after losing in the 2021 elections, when it secured only 13 seats. These election results indicate a shift in the political balance of power, with the possibility of forming a coalition that surpasses the 198-seat majority threshold. The voter turnout was 38.02%. The results open a new chapter for government formation, as parties will need to reach an agreement to achieve a clear majority. Meanwhile, the Justice and Development Party is returning to the scene with greater strength. This comes amidst Morocco's preparations to host the 2030 World Cup and pursue significant economic and developmental initiatives.
