Are elections influencing power in Morocco
The article summarizes that currently, Moroccan elections are not considered an effective tool for creating real change in citizens' lives, especially among the youth. This is due to a wide gap between the responsibility citizens believe they assign to elected officials and the actual authorities that control decision-making. The Moroccan political system is characterized by the centrality of the King, which diminishes the ability of elected institutions to exercise genuine power, reflected in citizens' weak trust in electoral promises. The crisis has fostered a growing belief that voting does not directly influence policies that affect their lives, particularly in areas like education, health, and employment. With repeated episodes of popular anger, the true decision-making centers remain far from electoral accountability, deepening the crisis of trust and threatening to turn elections into mere outlets for venting anger without tangible results. The upcoming elections will serve as a real test of whether parties and political elites can convince citizens that their votes have an actual impact; otherwise, widespread abstention may become a lasting political behavior, jeopardizing the legitimacy of the democratic system in Morocco.
