Political wandering raises voter protection concerns

The article addresses the issue of political migration in Morocco, highlighting the debate over its legitimacy and its impact on the stability of party work and electoral trust. Experts affirm that completely eliminating the phenomenon is impossible due to the Constitution’s guarantee of political freedom, but it is possible to curb "opportunistic switching," which is often used as a means for grandstanding and gaining electoral positions. It was noted that the law, especially since the 2011 Constitution, provides procedures for disqualifying deputies who change their party affiliation. However, practice tends to increase prior to elections, which threatens the credibility of the democratic process. It is crucial to review party laws to ensure transparency in nominations and to restore a balance between the freedom of political affiliation and maintaining electoral stability. Additionally, there is a need to strengthen the role of parties in guiding and training elites and to promote stability in the political work.
