Article 35 of the Jordanian House of Representatives’ Rules of Procedure settled the dispute over the extra ballot in the election for Speaker after the tally showed 139 ballots, despite the announcement that there were 138 in the ballot box. Ibrahim Tarawneh was officially elected with 70 votes, compared with 38 for Mujhem al-Suqour and 23 for Suleiman al-Zaben; eight ballots were invalidated. The article stipulates that blank and invalid ballots are excluded when calculating the majority. The total is therefore 130 votes, making 66 votes sufficient to win. This means Tarawneh still had a majority even if his count was 69.
